There is no substitute to rest at this hour. Rest rest rest. Take some pain killers and apply ice. Think about strengthening , rehab or anything only once out of pain, obviously.

Isolated ACL tears are not quite painful unless there is concomitant injury to other structures. Immobilise the knee with brace or plaster, take painkillers as advised reduce pain and swelling till required

Hello there.... have you done MRI of your knees? Well if it is only a partial tear of the ACL it can be managed without surgical intervention....you can visit any musculoskeletal physiotherapist who is well versed with ACL rehab protocol...however your pain needs to be at a minimum level before starting any exercises for ACL tear....i hope you have consulted an orthopaedic surgeon regarding this as well.
Regards & take care.
