Surgery to reconstruct acl is to restore your knee function. It is very important structure of knee. Instability of knee leads to meniscus tear and chondral damage over period of time. Anyhow you will end up with surgery. Delayed surgery will have compromised outcome. It' s your knee and your choice.
