I'm dealing with a neck spasm and shoulder muscle pain for the past couple of days, and there's a slight swelling near the right side of my jaw. I've already tried applying ointment and taking painkillers, but its not getting any better. Should I be worried about this, or is there something else I should be doing?

Here's a rephrased, natural-sounding query based on your article: *It's been 31 days since my ACL and meniscus repair surgery how long until I can walk normally again?* This version keeps the medical terms (ACL, meniscus repair), sounds conversational, and reflects genuine concern without being overly formal or robotic. No greetings or excessive punctuation, just a direct yet natural question.

Patients walk unassisted within 2-4 weeks, but for short periods. After 10-12 weeks, expect brisk walking, light jogging, and even plyometric exercise. Full recovery on ACL reconstruction is 6-12 months, or more with physical therapy
