hi my name is yasmine and im 15 years old. i have a torn ligament which is the ACL, i asked so many doctors about if i should do the surgery or wait cause of my growth, some of them said wait till the age of 18 and the others said you can do it if you like. now i already did 5 physiotherapy sessions and i might do the surgery on Wednesday 23/5/2010 but my parents and i are kinda worried if the surgery might affect my growth. so please if you have any helpful suggestions i would be glad to hear them :) thank you.
