I am 35 and tore my ACL when I was 18, My Miniscus (the cartilage) was pretty much gone. I had it fixed two years ago and it was the best thing I could have done. I put it off for 14 years because I thought I could not find the time. I build stairs for a living and could not justify the time off to heal. The doc fixed the tendon and shaved the cartilage. I was chipping golf balls with my brace the next day. (not recomended) I was back to work within a couple of weeks.

One funny thing, I had a spinal to numb my lower half. When I woke up after surgery the feeling started to come back everywhere except my unit. The nurse came in asked how I was doing and my wife said "He can"t feel his penis" the nurse said every guy says that because it is the last place to regain feeling.

That was to most scary part of the whole operation.

DO THE PHYSICAL THEREPY AFTER THE SURGERY!

Good luck!
Scott
