ACL tear 2 weeks ago. Is surgery the only option? Im 32.?

Question

Need your opinions on those familiar with the injury. Im 32. I play basketball at least 1-2x a week before the injury. Other than that im not really that active. I asked my PT and he said it depends on how active you are and also your age to consider surgery. He said there are ways to strengthen the muscles to help the injury instead of surgery since im not that active. What are your thoughts please.

Answer 1

No, self directed healing is possible if you are real determined.

Answer 2

i suggest that you do the surgery... i was once like you... I've been deciding whether i do the surgery or not but trust me, it will pay off.
