I fractured my leg over 15 days ago and just got my latest results. Can you take a look and tell me if I need surgery to fix the rod or if it's healing okay on its own?

View allI'm from Hyderabad and my MRI showed tears in my left knee medial and lateral meniscus plus an ACL issue. The report mentions an oblique tear in the medial meniscus, a grade II horizontal tear in the lateral meniscus, and a full-thickness ACL tear with some retraction. I've seen two ortho doctors one recommended arthroscopy for ACL and meniscus repair, while the other said only the meniscus needs surgery since I work in IT and have a sedentary lifestyle. Can these meniscus tears heal on their own with physio, or is surgery the only option? What's the best treatment for my case?
Prompt treatment can help prevent the condition from worsening and may improve your chances of a full recovery.Stretching physical therapy is advise.Also RICE treatment is advied to the patient(REST,ICE,COMPRESSION and ELEVATION).Surgery advised is arthroscopy and meniscectomy is the gold standard technique to the patient.
