for meniscus or ACL, they didn't know until they got in there as it was the early years of arthroscopic surgery.

He said if they just remove the meniscus you will be walking in 2 weeks but will hobble the rest of your life with bone on bone which happened

But if they repair the meniscus you need to be motionless for over a month to let it heal, then will be 6 months plus of trying to rehab.

I am sure it is better now as ACLs are quick recoveries.

If the guy has a desk job it shouldn't take more than a month
