Answer #1

If you tore your ligament you should prob get surgery cause they take a while to heal and it hurts a lot especially when it your knee, just rest and try to use your knee as little as possible. I hope this helps.

Answer #2

Ligaments take a long time to heal…you don’t want to be on pain killers that long, Try taken it easy on the knee, avoid stressful activities until healed. Try Heat it my provide temp relief, and if swellling try ice…good luck
