I'm really worried about my MRI results showing a chronic partial ACL tear and this buckling happening at the back. It also mentions a small chronic grade 3 tear in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus reaching the inferior meniscal surface. What should I be doing about this? Does this mean surgery is unavoidable, or are there other treatment options I should consider first? I'm just anxious about what this all means for my mobility and day-to-day activities.

I've had an ACL injury for the past 2 years and I'm wondering if sports injury surgery can be done without using screws what are my options and how effective are they
Yes, it's possible to manage ACL injuries without surgery, particularly for those who are less active or who don't want to return to high-impact sports. If surgery is necessary, there are minimally invasive techniques that may avoid using screws, such as suture-based repairs or allograft techniques.
