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?

View allI'm a 40-year-old from Hyderabad and my MRI showed tears in the medial and lateral meniscus of my left knee along with an ACL tear. The report mentions an oblique tear in the posterior horn of the medial meniscus, a grade II horizontal tear in the lateral meniscus, and a full-thickness mid-substance ACL tear with some retraction. I consulted two orthopedic 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 without surgery What should be my next steps given my age and daily routine
