What is the recovery time for focal subchondral fracture at lateral tibial condyle with mild depression and adjacent marrow edema, focal marrow edema at medial intercondylar tubercle and medial femoral condyle. there is a acl grade 1 sprain also?

I would estimate 3 months for full healing. However, the orthopedic specialist who attended you would know the true extent of the knee damage and its current status & is in the best position to answer your question.
