Question:

knee injury-acl partial tear, mcl sprain

i am 27/m, had a stretch of my left knee some one and a half years back after doing continuous work( walking fast here n there with no time to sit for bout 38-40 hrs. continuously). at that time i didn't have much pain and i guess this went unnoticed.ever since then i had a dull aching sensation 'deep' in my left knee(rt.ones perfectly fine!).i sought no treatment. however since last 15 days, i had a sharp pain whenever my left leg accidentally landed up in some uneven surface such as a ditch and even when i fully try to extend it.there is no pain on flexion however.i find it difficult to bear weight on my left limb. my MRI (left knee) was s/o partial tear left Ant.Cruc.Lig. + Med. Coll.Lig. sprain + joint effusion + contusion of med.condyles left tibia n femur. iam on etoricoxib and glucosamine tabs. but honestly speaking not taking rest at all.kindly tell how do i manage this further. i m really worried bout my left knee !!!!! after how long will i recover and start participating in sports (long distance runs)?

i'd be grateful if u answer this on an urgent basis.
thanks.
