I had a partial ACL tear 10 months ago and one doctor said I might need surgery but another suggested physiotherapy exercises could help it recover in about 2 years. Is it really possible for the ACL to heal completely with just physio or should I consider surgery? I'm worried about making the right choice for long-term recovery.
At 10 months after a partial ACL tear, most individuals can expect to have returned to most activities of daily living, including walking and full weight-bearing. However, a full return to sports and high-impact activities may take longer and should be discussed with your doctor. A partial ACL tear can often heal without surgery, but some individuals may still experience knee instability, particularly with more strenuous activities.
