THis is a good site for clarity of explanation about knee injuried.
My prime comment on this subject is that once the repair has been effected, good quality physio and after-attention will reap benefits. After an arthroscopy, I skipped the physio stuff, was back playing tennis in two weeks, and skiing 6 months later. This was a mistake, and I paid for it.
At season end, I attended a sports physio anda sports scientist. The exercise program offered was worked on everyday until the following winter. The result ~ seven weeks of pain and twinge-free skiing.
It is worth the effort.

Dave Mac,
You are so right. I am guilty of such thinking, before my tune up! I have coached many a team and I (in my ignorance) thought that I could prepare my own physio plan and program!
After first session of torture,,, yet pleasure ( all knee skiers will understand) I realized how ignorant I was!
All studies prove that correct supervised physio is as important as the knee work by physician! I leaned more with physio than with all my meetings with physician!
I support Dave Mac'c comment completly! Take time to have correct physio program! It will be worth it!
Another "suggestion"!
Be prepared mentally to take all the pain since you must pass the "wall" to get better!
