It's generally not recommended to drink alcohol after ACL surgery, especially in the initial stages of recovery. Alcohol can interfere with the healing process, potentially leading to complications like increased bleeding or infection. It can also disrupt your sleep, which is crucial for recovery

Rephrased Query: My mom's MRI report for her right knee shows a complex grade 3 tear in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus, mild synovial effusion, and edema in the pre- and intrapatellar region. I'm really worried does this mean she needs surgery, or can a grade 3 meniscus tear heal on its own?

It is worth while to give a trial to conservative treatment.
