Is it safe to delay ACL surgery for 6 months because I have police training starting next month and don't want to miss it? What are the risks if I wait that long?

The more you can delay is six months. The time between ACL injury and surgery should be a minimum of one to two months. This is because around five to six months you will notice that you are no longer in a position to even walk and lift your legs. This will see you easily drag you to the orthopedic doctor for surgery
