Partial ACL tear - no surgery

[mouk786]

Leg amputation is the last resort. Before that is a knee replacement and you are unlikely to get one if you are in your 30s. Its a significant operation.

ACL ligament reconstruction is pretty standard.

You ideally need an MRI scan to see what is happening inside.

My first prot of call woudl be a sports physio - but looks like you areseeing a Dr so maybe they will refer you to a specialist.

I also have problems with my hips compensating for my weak side - all my msucle have tighted on my good side.

If you do not have laxity(looseness) i nthe need then it may be cartilage damage.

Sharp pain is abd and need slooking at.
