hi,

thank you for providing the brief description of your injury.

A thoroguh Musculoskeletal assessment is advised.

Also, as you mentioned that three years back you had partial tear of ACL, I think you should have made the knee stronger by complete rehabilitation of it before playing the soccer.

Since now the scene is different and it is completely torn. surgery is the recommendation of choice. As to keep the other structures of knee intact it is advised to undergo surgery.

Also, post surgery after a proper rehabilitation of knee you can play soccer again and had the best output.

ACL injury is common in sports injuries and also back to sports after reconstruction it is possible to go back to sports again.

In my clinical experience , when the ACL is completely torn it is advised to undergo reconstruction of ACL and then rehabilitation followed with best results. 100% recovery is achieved post ACL reconstruction.
