It's been 15 days since my complete ACL reconstruction surgery done through orthoscopy - how do I know if my recovery is on track and what should I be careful about at this stage

Mild pain, swelling, and stiffness are common at 2 weeks—follow physio and avoid weight-bearing stress.

View allI've had pain in my right knee for the past two weeks and the MRI scan shows a complex medial meniscus tear. What treatment options do I have or will I need surgery for this?
With a complex medial meniscus tear, treatment options depend on the severity, location, and symptoms. Non-surgical options like RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation), physical therapy, and pain management may be tried first. If these don't relieve symptoms or if the tear is large or causing instability, surgery (like arthroscopic repair or partial meniscectomy) may be necessary.

I'm 6 weeks post-op from arthroscopic surgery on my right shoulder for an ALPSA lesion and need to start active movements and external rotation exercises. Since I can't see a physio right now, what exercises can I safely do at home? I also have slight pain during internal rotation should I be concerned about that?
ortho opinion is advised to the patient at apollo hospital.

I have a partial ACL tear and I'm not sure if I need surgery or just physiotherapy. Can you help me understand what's best based on my MRI report? I'm really worried about making the right choice for recovery.
For partial ACL tears, physiotherapy might suffice unless the ligament is severely torn or if you have knee instability. Discuss your MRI findings with your orthopedic surgeon to determine whether surgery or conservative treatment is best.
