Question

I have a partial ACL tear from running and playing football and cricket. My MRI shows a partial tear at the femoral attachment of the ACL, some changes in the medial meniscus, bone bruising in the tibial condyles, and mild joint swelling with a popliteus muscle injury. Can physiotherapy help heal this without surgery or is surgery my only option

Partial ACL tears with meniscus and muscle injury can often be managed with physiotherapy; surgery is reserved if instability or pain persists.
