I've been diagnosed with a low-grade partial ACL tear and I'm wondering if physiotherapy alone can help it heal without affecting my daily routine or sports. Is it safe to skip surgery, or will I run into problems later? I really don't want any future issues that could disrupt my life can I manage this without surgery and still live normally? What's the best option for me?

Four months ago on May 8th, I had an accident that broke the bone in my polio-affected leg. The doctor did surgery and inserted a rod from my thigh bone to the knee with screws. Now my bones are healing and I've started walking, but I can't bend my knee at all. I've been doing wax therapy and some exercises, but it's still really hard to bend. What treatment would help me get my knee movement back?

ortho opinion is advised to the pt.
