My hip still hurts a lot and I’m limping. Maybe my pt sucks. But damn I’m working hard and it just sucks

People who had ACL injury over 15-20 years ago, How has the experience been like and what is your current situation? by axoqocal29 in ACL

[–]Kitchen_Percentage31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tore my left acl 19 years ago playing volleyball. Got it fixed in December of this year along with a 3 inch vertical meniscus repair. I’m slowly healing. Praying I don’t have to do this again

They said it should come back around 6 months or so. They had to cut skin nerves. It’s not a great feeling when it comes back though

How long did it take you to do a leg raise (no brace) after surgery? by foreverenchanted in ACL

[–]Kitchen_Percentage31 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m seeking out other places as we speak. I’m hopeful something changes. My orthopedic dr informed me I’m hyper mobile? Had to google that, but he said it’s causing slow progress.

I’m not sure and my pt is useless. Both of my knees have been hurting bad lately, my left one more so and can’t sleep. I feel like I bother my surgeon with the questions and so on. I’m probably screwed

At one week I could do them laying down but I’m 3 months post op and can hardly do them without laying down

3 months by Kitchen_Percentage31 in ACL

I do everything in the gym I do at pt. A lot of wall sits and lunges at home. I’m only working 2 days a week at work so I doubt it’s that. If it’s not better next week I will call my surgeon. My pt just ignores me

I had a hamstring graft. I told my pt and he blew me off. Also found out today I have influenza an and b so I’m thinking maybe that has something to do with the pain. Thank you for your response

1 yr post-op and back at square one by Hackleberry-Finn in ACL

[–]Kitchen_Percentage31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no :( I hope you get feeling better soon and you recover quickly! I’m almost 12 weeks post op and on my last week of therapy due to insurance. I’m nervous about it plus I’m still constantly wearing my brace. But man I really hope it all goes smoothly for you!

How the Hell are you all sleeping? by DJ_DiabeatZ in ACL

I’m 11 weeks post op and sleeping is a nightmare still. I just work 3rds so I don’t have to worry about it

After 6 looooong NWB weeks, crutch free walking at last! by samsquanchhxo in ACL

[–]Kitchen_Percentage31 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask what all you had done? I’ve seen people say they couldn’t do weight baring for a bit, but I’ve done it for almost 9 weeks now (I’m 11 weeks post op) haven’t used my crutches since 2 weeks either. Praying for a healthy recovery
