MRI Of Right Knee Done. Suggested Surgery. Is There Anything To Worry?

Hello Doctor,

I am XXX. Recently i got an MRI done for my right knee after experiencing some pain in it and few weeks after i joined gym. It states that 1. Myxoid degeneration of the posterior horn of medial meniscus. 2. Sprain of anterior cruciate ligament. My doctor told me that it will heal as the time passes by. But Its been 6 weeks and not fully recovered. The doctor says that he will go for the surgery if it doesn't heal. i am worried. please help
