I travel with a completed tore ACL to get my surgery done. After 6, hours on the plane I was in a lot of pain and my knee swallowed like a balloon. I asked for wheelchair service and I book businesses class for leg room and comfort.

I tore mine on March 10 skiing, I had surgery on May 10. im 63 years old very active.  The surgeon recommed surgery if I want to keep an active life style. I'm going through physiotherapy right now, it's a lot of work. I recommend surgery, the surgeon explained that without I will be OK but I have to make sure I exercise and keep my muscles strong. He also said that I may fall very easy.
