MCL questions

I am a goalie and was getting up from on my knees on the ice and felt a tear to the lower left of my right knee cap.  From what I've been reading it seems like the MCL.  I couldn't put any weight on it at all for about two weeks.  Every thing has been pretty slow.  I have a bad limp right now and I injured it just about three months ago.  Now it seems to always want to crack in the spot where it was injured.  After it cracks it usually feels a little better for a little while.  I cannot straighten it at all either.  
I have not been doing any physio at all.  I have had an MRI but it is taking forever to see my doc. about the results.  
Since I can't staighten it am I going to need a surgery?  Should the recovery be taking this long?  What should I do?
