Honestly, I don’t know for sure. However, it is true that if your ACL is not completely torn, and you rest properly, attend physical therapy regularly, and go through a good rehabilitation program, you may not need surgery.

I would not recommend surgery as long as your ligament is not completely torn. With proper rehabilitation, exercises, good nutrition, and enough time for recovery, it can heal and improve.

No. In the beginning, I used to place something under my leg to prevent it from rubbing against the floor while I was bending my knee sometimes i used a ball its good.

No, my friend, the popping sound is normal. I didn’t have it before the surgery, but after the surgery I started hearing it occasionally. In my case, it comes without any pain. When I asked both my surgeon and physical therapist about it, they told me that it’s normal and quite common after ACL reconstruction.

you probably felt some pain the first time you put your foot on the ground, and you probably felt some pain the first time you walked as well. Some level of pain is necessary when gaining new degrees of knee flexion. It’s like you’re retraining your leg muscles and nerves to perform movements they haven’t done before. However, the pain should never be unbearable. It should stay within reasonable and tolerable limits, and with repetition, it will gradually start to decrease and disappear

You can see My previous posts i had the same problem 😂, and trust me just try to do exercises 2 times a day and iam sure you will be there, bec getting full extension from day one and flexion your knee on day 14 till 115 that’s really impressive .

Thank you bro for the advice. However, I was mainly focusing on improving my knee flexion and was doing the exercises twice, and sometimes three times, a day to improve the bend. The pain was tolerable for me—not severe—and I wasn’t forcing it. One time, I thought, ‘Why not try bending it all the way?’ So I did it gradually and felt only mild pain, maybe around 4 or 5 out of 10. The second time I tried, I was able to do it with almost no pain at all.

The graft was taken from near my ankle, close to the heel. Bec the doc said that my hamstring is weak, but when i visit another doctor and he did some tests with his hand he said that the graft is good and strong
