If the acl is completely torn you will need surgery, if its a partial tear like mine it will heal. Takes about 2-3 months off of it before its healed along with a bunch of physio. You will need surgery for the meniscus as well, if you dont it will lead to a lot of problems.

 

have the surgery, you'll need it. I dont know if you're covered for it but i hope so :\

5 years here of the same injury... well i was stupid enough to think once i was able to jog to go and play soccer again and re injured it again (ACL & MCL)... so rehab just started for me and it is slow but it helps

Yeah I was talking to my friend today who's on my team, he tore his meniscus (half tear) 5 years ago and it's only 75% now, he can feel swelling if he tries powershots too much. Also told me the ACL & MCL are the worst combination to tear =\, hope your rehab helps it a lot. Worst thing is my doctors been in surgery all week and I'm going on vacation for a week tomorrow so I'm not gonna find out what we're gonna do til at least the 9th.

Another update, surgery on August 7th, they aren't sure if my medial is torn and they'll find out when they do the surgery and do it then. I almost passed out cause the doctor was going into so much fucking detail about it.

 

You will be fine my friend. It will be over very quickly.

The tough part that you should be worried about is the physical therapy. YOU MUST COMPLETE IT. I recently had 2 shoulder re construction. After the first one I didnt finish my PT and re injured it and now i cant do the one thing i loved. (wakeboard)

The surgery part is basically pain free. You will be a little sore but pain pills and nerve blocks make it a little fun =D. Just relax and take it easy.

Haha thanks. I'm really trying to play varsity my senior year (and hopefully in college) so I'm not gonna skip out on any of my PT. Scariest and most digusting thing I saw on the MRI was a mass bubble of fluid below it. I can feel the bump and it's fucking weird.
