So I injured my left knee during a soccer game back in May. The MRI scan showed a partial or complete tear of the ACL and two different meniscus tears.
I had trouble walking after the injury (with two episodes of deep pain), but my knee is somehow getting better and better. The orthopedist told me to train with a physical therapist (which I did two times so far), and that we'll check out later in September if I need surgery or not.
This week, I had the ''go'' to start running or playing sports by my physical therapist because my knee improved a lot since the first meeting a week earlier. I need to be sure I get no instability from my knee though (which I don't).
My question : anybody had this kind of injury and didn't need surgery? Any advice? Should I still be worried even if I don't feel any instability?
Thanks in advance.
