Recovering from ACL Tear
Hi - I had a partial ACL tear a month back. I had a doctor check the injury, he said since since it's a partial tear , no surgery needed it would heal on its own, he gave me a knee supporter belt and some tablets. Its been a month still I see the injury has not healed. How much time does it take or what should I do to make the inury recover faster?
