I just got my MRI report and it shows a high grade partial thickness tear in my ACL with some retraction and a small bony avulsion near the tibial eminence. There's also mention of a chip fracture in the posterior tibial plateau with bone marrow edema. Can this heal on its own or will I need surgery? I'm really worried about the extent of the damage and what it means for recovery

I had a minor bike accident a few weeks ago and since then, I've been experiencing this nagging pain on the right side of my ribs, just below my right breast. At first, I assumed it was just a typical muscle pain that would go away, so I tried using Volini gel and a hot gel bag for a couple of weeks. But there was no improvement, so I decided to get an X-ray after my doctor suggested it, and it came back normal. My doctor then put me on some painkillers for muscle pain, and I've been taking them for about a week now. But the pain is still there. It's really intense when I make minor body movements, during sudden jolts while traveling in a bus, car, bike, or rickshaw, and even when I hiccup. Sleeping has become uncomfortable too, as I can't turn to my sides. What should I do to get some relief from this? I would really appreciate some guidance.

Orthopedic opinion is advised to the patient.
