The problem is that with an acl tear, you are able to walk in a straight line fairly easily; the anterior cruciate ligament is important in lateral, or side to side movement.
An ACL tear is typically considered worse than an MCL tear because the ACL is a crucial ligament for knee stability. An ACL tear often requires surgery to repair and has a longer recovery time compared to an MCL tear, which may heal with conservative treatments like rest and physical therapy.
No, its considered an ACL tear.
What was the doctor's advice?
Yes
no acl surgery is only possible by therapy
If it is torn, it does not heal itself. You need surgery.
An ACL tear is a common knee injury that involves the tearing of the anterior cruciate ligament, which is one of the major ligaments in the knee. It often occurs during activities that involve sudden stops, changes in direction, or direct impact to the knee. ACL tears can cause instability, pain, and swelling in the knee and may require surgery for repair.

yes you can!! you could be running and then suddenly decrease speed ( finishing a race) and ultimately tear your ACL. this hurts like hell and should not be done on purpose, i am tying this to you know after tearing my ACL by twisting slightly from getting up from a computer. next door is a doctor surgery and he had put me through to the hospital for a MRI and surgeon talks. No immense pain, i would describe it as moderate and i can walk ok so i am doing quite well. no matter what its surgery though coz i have other problems with my knees also. THIS IS A DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME (IN MY OPINION) but its what you think that counts!! :)
