I have a grade 1 posterior medial meniscus tear will this heal on its own or do I need surgery? I'm worried about making it worse if I don't get the right treatment. What's the usual recovery time for something like this?
A grade 1 posterior medial meniscus tear often heals on its own without surgery, especially with rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) therapy. The usual recovery time for a grade 1 meniscus tear can range from 6 to 8 weeks, but this can vary. Surgery is usually not needed unless symptoms persist or worsen after a few months.

Is it safe to delay ACL surgery for 6 months because I have police training starting next month and don't want to miss it? What are the risks if I wait that long?
The more you can delay is six months. The time between ACL injury and surgery should be a minimum of one to two months. This is because around five to six months you will notice that you are no longer in a position to even walk and lift your legs. This will see you easily drag you to the orthopedic doctor for surgery
