### instruction:
If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patient's description.

### input:
I had a skiing accident wherein my right knee ended up isolated in the air, with my right food planted on the ground outside my right hip, (sitting position) and it popped out to the left. when i was able to stand and put weight on it, it again popped out in the same direction. i ve since used crutches for 2 weeks, constantly worn a brace and limited physical activity, iced and elevated, etc. I had an MRI and my Dr. told me I ve partially torn my ACL and MCL and have severe bruising on all bones. She has informed me surgery is unnecessary and has prescribed P.T. for 8 weeks and no physical activity, continuous use of the brace and anti-inflammatory meds. In reading Ortho Journal articles, I m seeing that Multiple Knee Ligament Injuries should be treated by a specialist and are considered serious. I worry about finding the right course of action because I ve read many difficulties can arise, such as loss of knee movement, further injury, etc. I am a 32 year old, very active female and need to be able to resume skiing, kick boxing, cycling, etc. I have Kaiser, therefore, a second opinion is sort of a sticky situation. Just curious if this would be other Dr. s courses of action as well or if it s suggested I see someone else.

### output:

Here as per your explanation I understand you have got injury for ACL and PCL both ligament sin your knee and along with that there is a swelling in your knee joint. Here I agree with your orthopedic doctor opinion that there is surgery needed when there is damage to both ligaments (ACL, PCL) and more over if that is also complete damage. Now next thing what your doctor have suggested is also very true that you have to go for physiotherapy for few weeks. Because with certain physiotherapy treatment along with basic exercise will help you to reduce the inflammation. As you get over with inflammation and swelling from your knee my suggestion is before going for surgery do enough of weight training (knee strengthening) exercises. This will help you to recover faster after your ligament reconstruction surgery. Here you do not need to worry by checking online reviews but follow the right treatment program that is before operation physio treatment and exercises. And then plan for surgery and again post-operative follow the physio rehabilitation program. For your main question bruises on the bone, this will go away as you follow physio treatment and use hot pack on your knee.  Take care.
