I had surgery because I tore my acl, mcl, and my meniscus. It has been about two months now and I am hoping to play Golf soon. I have been told you can play golf after two months. Running begins at 4 months post-op. If rehab goals are met, sports are allowed 6 months after surgery, however you will need clearance from your doctor prior to resuming sports.
