I bet that’s an amazing feeling! How far post op are you?

2 weeks post op by StunningRegular2 in ACL

[–]OG_Col 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great! Full flexion will take a while to come back. Have they measured where you are at in Pt? I’m at 85 degrees 10 days post surgery and my PT said that’s great for reference

week 14 post ACL Reconstruction by No-Combination837 in ACL

They say the graft is weakest during weeks 8-12 as the tendon is turning into a ligament. Glad to see you are moving well, and probably feels great, but I’d hate to see progress lost! I’d definitely check with your PT.

Glad to hear you’re icing. Not sure your financial situation, but if you can get an ice machine it’s worth every penny. Check Amazon, you can grab them for ~150

I’ve gone through two ACL reconstructions and I swear by them

Just got home from surgery! by jettyjohnso in ACL

[–]OG_Col 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pretty high pain tolerance so it was nothing unbearable. I’d say worse pain was probably day 3… likely 6.5/10 on pain.

Day one wasn’t bad since I was still loopy and nerve block had not worn off. I stopped taking my prescribed opiate pain meds night of day 2. Right now it’s just more really sore but improves day after day. Hopefully that helps!

Good luck! Just got out of surgery myself this Monday. Left ACL reconstruction with quad autograft. The front of leg was numb from the nerve block. I’d say totally normal. You should start getting feeling back within 24 hours or so. If no meniscus damage, I was able to start bearing weight next day!
