How Can A Torn ACL Be Treated?

I HAVE A TORE ACL & MEMISCOUS IN MY KNEE AND I TAKE HYDROCODONE EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE FOR IT. I DO NOT HAVE A PRESCRIPTION BECAUSE THEY DO NOT CONSIDER IT PAIN MANAGEMENT ISSUE. ALSO IT HAS BECOME AN EPIDEMIC SO THAT MAKES IT EVEN HARDER TO GET. i AM CONSIDERING MOVING TO ANOTHER COMPANY AND THEY NATURALLY DO PRE EMPLOYMENT DRUG SCREENING. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN TAKE TO MASK THE HYDROCODONE OR AM I JUST OUT OF LUCK. ANY FEED BACK WOULD BE HELPFUL.
