I have a bony avulsion fracture of my PCL with a bone fragment that's mildly displaced posterosuperiorly and measures around 16x15x10 mm. All my other ligaments are intact. Will this heal with just 4 weeks in a plaster cast or do I need surgery for it?

My engagement is coming up soon and I just got my reports do I really need surgery or is there a way to postpone it if possible? I'm a bit worried about the timing and recovery

YES, you can anytime

I'm a defense aspirant and had to undergo reconstruction surgery for my leg. If I regain full motion and function, will this affect my SSB medical clearance? Could it impact my leg's performance during physical tests?

While regaining full motion and function after leg reconstruction surgery is a positive sign, it doesn't automatically guarantee SSB medical clearance. The SSB medical board will assess the extent of the surgery, the recovery progress, and the overall functionality of your leg. A history of surgery is often disqualifying, but can be waived if the board is satisfied with the recovery.
