A member asked:
Can i still play soccer with a partially torn acl? do i need to have surgery to fix it or are there other ways to fix it without surgery? thank you!

No soccer: Any grade year needs proper therapy. If the tear is severe enough you need surgery to fix. Other injuries may improve with rest and aggressive physical therapy. I recommend MRI and follow with orthopedist
