Knee injury with torn AcL
I got my knee twisted while playing football. Went to doctor, he advised for mri. One of the doctors advised that it's a complete tear and I have to go for surgery while other suggested that its a partial tear and I can be cured by physiotherapy. I have taken almost 15 sessions. Now I can walk properly and it's been 2 months. But I tried to run two days ago and I felt alot of pain and same feEling that I got when injury was fresh. How much time it's going to take for complete recovery.

you need to consider surgery. I do not think physiotherapy will work.
