Rollerblading injured (knee)

the doctor told me I could skate when I start jumping and running at pt and I did already but only flat, I told my physical therapist ive been skating (park) for a week, he freaked out. I've been hitting small ledges but when i landed the impact hurt my knee sometimes so i stoped doing it. March 13th I got acl and mcl surgery (cadaver) if that matters and now I really wanna skate! its like my addiction in the summer, even though I'm not good it's fun as shit.
skating bowl hurts less so I tried it and It feels pretty good I'm actually progressing. I need to make a decision and just want your opinion, should I take it easy and only skate bowl for now, stop skating (which would suck) or does the whole hurting of the knee thing is that it's adapting to skating again? I'm a bit worried cuz getting hurt again is definitely not worth it for ski season.
thanks ns!

Wait until the doc says your good to go, or you run the risk of prolonging proper recovery and you could hurt yourself even more and then be out for ski season.

you gotta just bite the bullet and stick to your recovery, it sucks but not healing properly sucks worse.

Trust me....take it slow. It's not worth it. Follow what the doctor says, focus on rehab....and you'll be better off in the long run. Don't push it.
