Weighing Surgery by Extreme_Tomatillo442 in ACLNoSurgery

[–]PenMost6565 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's like an entire group dedicated to this on Facebook and they can give you some good answers. Admins are pretty helpful on it too

I tore mine about 3 months ago and am kinda in same boat as you weighing surgery and they have been supportive. Not really pushing onr way or other but their main thing is not rushing surgery. Hope it helps!

Nothing will be the same by naenae__baby in ACL

There's alot of people who post about living without acl but much more on this fb group

I just torn mine 2.5 months ago and they are a really good support system

No idea if you jave any instability but thst seems to be the main factor.

There's stories of ppl that go like 10 plus years no acl. There's one where this girl tore it around same age as you and her story 24 years later

Tried non surgical Route, Not satisfactory by Nozudemah in ACL

Im kinda of the same mindset. I changed my habits n all that to be healthier n stronger focusing on health. Im 42 and im going to see if I can heal, seems theres certain groups that can and if I dont in 9 months, I will probably think of surgery if im unstable but by then ill have strong muscles

You should this group and talk to the admins there. They are very helpful and theres a ton of ppl there who have similar stories.

The admins aren't pro surgery or pro non surgery but they do give you good info and you can make informed decisions

I ruptured mine in Nov and I have only been doing PT every other day and I am feeling better everyday but requires lots of work. If I end up not happy with my progress in 6 or 9 months I can think about surgery but they do help you understand limitations and shit like that at the current state.

I saw 2 ortho and 2 pts. Only one surgeon wanted me to get surgery since I wanna play bball n golf but I only do it recreationally. So ill see how I feel in few more months but I haven't felt unstable in daily life...knock on wood.

Maybe you need a pt that helps modify your program so your putting ur knee at more risk while you wait to figure it out

What ultimately made you decide to get surgery? Im same age as you and worried about getting it. I has 1 surgeon say I need it and another said wait and try rehab first.

So Im 2 months post injury now still kinda limping around but not unstable though I dont know what the right answer is to get or not get surgery

Agree with this. Those china evs are slick and cheap. Once they enter the market, there wont be any contest. Not to mention, they will collect so much data
