I've been dealing with a minor meniscus tear in my right knee and the doctor had said to take it easy for a month and keep activities low for at least a year.

I've had an ACL injury that doesn't seem to be healing properly - my knee still makes popping sounds and hurts when I try to move it. I can't bend my knee all the way or climb stairs without pain. Should I consider surgery for this?
