Surgery if done for right indications is usually 100% effective there is no restriction on joining gym but if knee is painful, it may harm mri is necessary usually in young age, acl reconstruction is recommended as it leads to oa diet has no role in ligament injury avoid extreme knee bending such as squatting/sitting cross legged on floor.
