thank you for providing the brief history of your husband.
A thorough musculoskeletal assessment is advised.
As he has damaged the ligament, which ligament he has Damaged needs an understanding.
Also, he is undergoing surgery for the same, than post surgery the total rehabilitation time will be 3-4 weeks. Undergoing physical therapy should help achieve the optimum results.
In my clinical practice , patients i see with ligament injuries, physical therapy is advised and they respond well to it.
