Tips on What to Do Before ACL Surgery. Discuss your diagnosis. Go over all the details of your injury and upcoming surgery with your surgeon. Make sure you understand what caused it Ask questions. Make sure you understand the potential risks, limitations, and benefits of the ACL surgery.10 Ways to Speed Recovery. Follow your post-op instructions.
Immediately after ACL surgery, you will receive specific instructions from your surgeon, including the schedule Go to your follow-up appointments. It’s important that your progress is monitored.If you think you can do more, check with your physical therapist before attempting to go further.3. Use Cold Therapy to Control Inflammation.
Pain and swelling are at their peak in the first week after ACL surgery.1 It is especially important to apply cold therapy during this period to help reduce swelling and naturally control pain.Below are the ways Battle Balm can help you recover faster and get healthy again! 1 Battle Balm is an excellent medium for massage therapy Battle Balm has the glide you or your professional massage therapist need for the strokes and techniques of many massage modalities.Limit or stop using things such as caffeine, nicotine, and alcohol in the weeks leading to surgery.
Take certain nutritional supplements — such as multivitamins, vitamin C, and zinc — before surgery. These help promote wound healing during post-op recovery. How We Decide the Best Type of Graft to Repair Your ACL.
27) Spin / Recumbent Bike / Rowing machine Cycling (or rowing) before or after ACL knee surgery can be one of the safest exercises for your knee to help it regain knee flexion. However, in the first 6-8 weeks after surgery you should avoid.New ACL surgery could cut rehab and recovery time in half I am intimately familiar with the powerless finger-crossing people do before they learn what the MRI told the doctor. would have a.o Books – Amazon. o IPad (thanks for the present!) – Apple iPad 2. – Food. o Healthy meals are important as you will want to sit and eat. o Throw out bad food and buy some good snack food (nuts/fruit etc) – Exercise. o Before surgery it is important to do some PRE ACL Surgery Rehab.Tips for a speedy recovery.
Listen to and read your post-operative instructions. After surgery, you should be given verbal instructions for recovery as well.Any balance exercises that can be done before surgery will help to improve your recovery time. In my opinion don’t wait until surgery to start your recovery. Focus on strengthening all muscles around your knee without forgetting your hamstrings and the smaller.
ACL Surgery Recovery Time, in general, lasts for half a year. However, if your passion for sports is high, you can recover faster by following the right approach for the recovery. In the first place, it is not at all recommended to opt for extreme physical activities during your early recovery period.
Before your surgery, stock your kitchen with healthy foods that are easy to eat and to prepare. Remember, you won’t be exercising as much, so foods that include lean proteins and pack the most nutrients are best, such as chicken, fish, vegetables, and fruits. In addition, I recommend high fiber foods to keep your system flowing.That’s just the beginning, which i’ll cover this topic in a separate post. When it comes to your diet and nutrition, eating organic is your greatest bet for optimal healing and recovery after ACL surgery, which do not contain these horrible ingredients.
If it takes you five days or three months, you have to gain back your range of motion before asking your body to squat heavy or run a marathon. Below are some tips to keep in mind for your road to recovery: 1-10 days on crutches is completely common. Passive range of motion should be initiated immediately after surgery.
It’s clear now that unrepaired anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are often accompanied by damage to other soft tissue structures of the knee. Patients are advised to have surgery sooner than later. And surgeons are advised to carefully evaluate the joint for any additional ligament or cartilage tears before doing surgery for the ACL.
But sometimes patients opt out of surgery and decide.

I had my surgery done two days ago and it’s so weird, i am not in pain and i feel strength on my knee.
Hi Carol.
I would like to ask about my case specifically about the popping of the knee after my acl surgery and meniscopexy.
After 8months I asked the doctor for a MRI because I felt like something was wrong,so the results where there:The medial meniscus yust again torned,but the acl(hamstring graft) was beautiful on his place.
The question is:What could be the reason of the huge sounds average of popping(like two bones are moving,it feels like..) after straighten the knee even when I am sitting and then standing after the squads)and yeah it’s not only a terrible sound but sometimes is very painful.
Could it be caused because the torning of the meniscus(I honestly don’t think..).
I don’t trust my doctor anymore therefore searching the answer.
Thanks a lot.

Hi Jo, I tore my acl 6 months ago and was told I wont need surgery and should strengthen the muscles..
However after doing recommended exercises and wall sits my knee hurts and feels sore when moving, bending.
Is this normal when doing strengthening exercises? Do people do fine without or Would you recommend an operation generally?
Doc, got a question. I got a partial ACL Tear, Grade 2 LCL for almost a year now. I still get pain from deep squats. Is it normal? Can this exercise help or too late already? Or maybe some really big problem with my Lateral?
P.S. I can do some running, squats. just the Deep squats is where I feel pain in my right outer part. Thanks for this video doc. Just subscribed.
UCLA HEALTH, thank you for the video. I am 2 years post op. Ligament reconstruction of the ankle. There is very little info/videos discussing what to expect (pre op) and how to rebuild (post op). Please, make a video for the people having to work through the ligament reconstruction surgery.
This video is very good.
How many days after surgery can i start rehab/ exercises? Thanks
Thanks Dr. Jo! I recently tore my ACL again (for the 3rd time, I had surgery on each knee and tore it again on my left knee) as well as my meniscus last month. I plan on getting surgery for it but due to the COVID-19 outbreak I just might have to wait a little longer. I’ve been looking for exercises to do in the meantime to help strengthen my quads and hips to make the rehab process easier post-op and this video helps out a lot!
Amazing, 2 weeks ago we visited a clinic in Sarajevo with that just focuses on ACL and sports injuries with our prof’s.
Are we gonna see more of these videos?

After I had surgery my doctor told me not to use crutches or my PT the reason why I slip in my bathroom. Now I am scared if what happened to my knee.
Dr. Jo, Roughly 6 months ago I had what i believe to be a PCL tear? From sprinting. I didnt have insurance at the time and couldnt get it checked out but basically the leg curl motion, or bringing my heel to my butt caused much pain. Dead-lifting and squats i was still able to do. It is much better now but not completely. I still get a weird ache behind my knee if i drag my heel toward my body. Now that i do have insurance i cant get it checked out due to COVID19. I was wondering if you had any PCL stretches or therapy that you think may help?
What to do when you stopped doing rehab after you get your normal everyday motion back and decide to return to rehabilitation to return to sports? Back to square one?
……. umm asking for a friend…
Iam 35years I got patella knee operation please reply me my knee is not folding surgery got at 2 months back

I know I cant play sports anymore, but with 2 small kids I would like to be somewhat active.
Mam! I had a slight ligament tear medially in my knee 3 years ago. I m slightly over weight also. Now my adductor muscle(top of the knee in the front) is paining. What do you suggest i do?
Had my surgery 20 months ago and im still craving the oxycodone they put me on afterwards (100mg tabs usually taking two at a time). Honestly recommend not having anything over 50 mg if you dont want crippling addiction.

I recently had my second acl surgery. Since I know the feeling of searching youtube for answers and motivation I’ve started a Road To Recovery series on my channel to motivate others dealing with the same injury, give useful tips and share exercises along the way.
The first two weeks are up on my channel now! Make sure to check them out and subscribe for more if you enjoyed.
Making these videos and support from people who I don’t even know really helps to not dwell on the bad things and focus on getting better and stronger.
All the best,
Marten
Very good information. I have some good videos for ACL as well.
45-60 minuets í was working out 90-120 minuets plus practice before the accident happened
i’m 3 months post surgery and still swelling which is distrubing me doing some phase 2 movement.. is that normal?
I had my acl complete tear n lateral meniscus tear befor 1 mnth dr told me that i hav to strengthen my leg bt when i start exercising thats gonna pain me alot wt shouls i do plss give me some suggestions
I had surgery on 2 grade ACL, I mean half tear, so passed 6 weeks, but I still have pain and I can’t bend my knee, I need help doc!!!!!, tell something, and I also heard clicking sounds with pain
As usual,nothing circular. Small degree of medial and lateral rotation will make all the difference.Go watch a professional skier get wormed up,or snow border.
So I had ACL surgery about 9 months ago and my knee seems to be pretty swollen still. I can walk fine but it feels like there’s a lot of pressure built up in there and every now and then my leg won’t completely straighten out. It almost feels like it needs to be popped but I don’t know if I want to take the chance of popping my knee that I had surgery on and something else happening. Is that what I’m feeling? Does my knee need to be popped or something? I used to pop my knee all the time and ever since the surgery I haven’t been able to. It’s only popped when it wants to
6 months is short for a return. My daughter has just had her ACL surgery and we will take a much more conservative approach. 20% of her age group are likely to re-injure the same ligament or rupture the other knee upon return. I’d assume these numbers are much higher if you return to play to soon. Kudos for all the hard work and determination! I hope the result is an extremely positive one and you go on to smash your dreams in soccer.
mam these exercises also applicable for pcl? i had 8 months of operation.I can’t bend my knee full range
Hi,
Sorry if this is too long but I really need some help. I had ACL repair surgery using patellar graft 9 years ago. I’ve done pretty good for the most part but recently I started squatting and lunging, and it has been getting really sore and cracking, and I’ve lost mobility and strength in it since. What advice do you have?
Thank you so much.
I just had surgery yesterday.i want to knw when I walk after surgery
Hey y’all just curious, does the surgery hurt more than the injury?
Thanks docjo it’s really helpful and worked. Thanks for taking pain for humanity people like you serving the profession are the one who makes us feel prod of our docs and physios. Keep up the good job Dr Abhinav advocate India Jaipur
Is there any difference in the rehabilitation after acl surgery, but in one case the surgery is made with hamstring graft and the other one with pattelar graft?
Just had the Acl surgery with meniscus and cyst. Need to know what to expect in 2/3 month and what braces brad you have on? Please share thank you
Hi, guys, excellent video, as usual. Although I’m familiar with the fundamental principles of strength and conditioning, I am having difficulties with fitting these early stage exercises into a full comprehensive program, with “ideal” dosage and periodisation. So, it would be cool if you address this in a separate video. Something like “Exercise planning and periodisation in a rehab context”, a more general analysis of the evidence, not only for acl trauma.
I’m waiting for part 3 if the series. Cheers!:)
Thank you so much.. exactly one month ago I had injury. My ACL, PCL,MCL completely torn and fracture tibia near my knee cap.. it all happened cause my adult son who has autism, he and his brother both fell down on my knee during one of his tantrum episode. 2 adults more than 300 lb fell down on my knee and I heard 3 snap sound..ouch ��

I had an ACL Reconstruction Surgery 1 month ago using Hamstring graft. I was feeling OK, and so started walking with a gentle limp. However, once I was trying to pick up something from the floor and had a massive stretch on my hamstring. I also heard a cracking sound. My mobility is still the same as my level before this incident. However, it feels a bit strained and I observe a gentle bump and swelling behind the knee area.
Could you suggest me if it’s normal or may it heal naturally?

i got an acl injury a few month before the whole corona virus happened. I was able to get an x ray but not a mri which requires me to go to a primary care physician to send a referral. My insurance’s renewal has passed so I could use insurance if I went to a orthodontist, so I had to wait until march for it to renew. Finally when march comes around the corona virus also comes around and due to a lot of corona patients, I wasn’t able to get my referral, so I cant get my mri. Its been around 3 months now and I am able to walk but I feel pain during a simple jogging or running in my neighborhood. I just got back jogging today and my acl hurts. I hope I can do an at home physcial therapy from youtube myself.

Hi Dr Jo. I tore my ACL about three months ago. My muscles tensed up a lot around the knee. I expect I’ll have the surgery once the virus thing is passed.
In the meantime, is it ok to use my home spin bike to spin? My surgeon seemed to feel that was fine.

Hello! I injured my ACL 6 weeks ago, my doctor told me to not move my leg at all for three weeks so I was wearing a leg brace. Now I’m almost back to full motion and I’m trying to excercise so the knee gets stronger again, and it doesn’t hurt at all, but the problem is I used to dance a lot, and now everytime I try to kick my other leg (kicking with the injured leg is fine), the injured knee instantly gives away. Can’t even lift my other leg above my hips, the knee is just refusing to manage it. Maybe it’s too early to try dancing again, but I wanna know, is it even possible for the knee to get okay enough to go through a dance lesson (an amateur ballet) without giving away? Without an operation? I would really appreciate your answer, thank you!
What kind of leg exercises can one do in the years that follow an ACL surgery? It seems most leg exercises make my knee hurt for a day.
Hey did have a recent ACL injury and have gained full motion of knee, can climb stairs. But am 80kg of weight and wanted to know what excercises I can do on regular basis to strengthen my knee without hurting it.. concern too much weight
I’m 7 months post op and my patellar tendon is still so weak and not formed like a normal one and the bottom incision hurts sometimes
I had my ACL surgery 6 days ago and first two day of surgery was very tough
I have a partial acl and meniscus tears, about 2 months old. The thing I’m most concerned about is I get pain in my knee when bending it. I still can’t get up on flight of stairs with my injured leg leading. Is there anything else I could be doing, or is it just a matter of time for healing? Not sure if its a muscular strength issue. Havent been able to do PT for advancing my exercises because of covid19
From Maharashtra m Having Acl sprain grade 2nd on left leg Dr had gvn painkillers only b4 six months but now thrz same pain in rt knee what should I do. Knee effusionz also thr
I had an ACL surgery nearly two weeks ago, and I was able to walk without crutches on the day after surgery.
So…. around 4 weeks or so, I had an acl repair and a meniscus fix Bc I grounded out my previous one. I can bend well, I just can’t straighten me knee without it hurting and my doctor said nothing will break if I straighten it all the way, but it hurts when I try.
Hi,
The current climate on COVID-19 has meant my ACL and Meniscus tear rehab have both been delayed/postponed or as it seems completely forgotten about by the NHS, which is understandable due to the pandemic. However my Surgeon/physician told me (when i FIRST had my MRI to confirm the tears), that i may be able to return to playing football without surgery due to having strong surrounding muscles and many other soccer/football players have done so (i thought he was just telling me this so that i stayed positive but the pain i felt at the time was telling me different and in no way did i think i would be able to do the things i am doing now without surgery).
As I have no physio or anyone helping me due to social distancing etc, i have kind of taken it upon my self to see what my knee is capable of… now almost 4 months post tear with no physio or any external rehab, I am able to barbell squat 120kg+KG for reps (was squatting 180KG prior) and run in a straight line without pain or sometimes both exercises cause maybe a 2/10 pain (sometimes) (i have been running 5 KM in around 22-23 minutes so a decent pace). When i speak to others that have had the injury or at the same point in there recovery (4 months post trauma), they are unable to believe how much i can do with no physio/surgery/rehab. which is really leaving me in the dark as i just want to play football again… but also i dont want to cause anymore stress to the knee. I would’nt say my knee feels normal at all, but pain is low and stability is nowhere near perfect but its ok.
Now because I have no physio due to the current situation in the UK, I have no support or help as to what i should be doing next or what i should actually be doing… Being a student i also don’t have the funds to pay extortionate amounts of money to go private. I am also worried that if i tell them this info they will tell me i don’t need certain surgeries etc to save money and because i have told them i am ok and i am back running. but in order to play football at the level or intensity as i did i want to do whats best for my knee.
I am worried to try any multi directional work or even kick a ball. Is anyone on here able to advise or help me what i should do next? As if i can go back to playing football without having ACL reconstruction it would be a dream. If this is not the place could anyone point me in the right direction? Just to confirm I have had an MRI scan to confirm both a tear in my ACL and medial meniscus. just to note, I am a 20 year old male.
I hope everyones recovery is going well and thanks for taking the time to read!
How the fuck you guys fucked up your knee? What kinda shjt you have been doing?
WOW I cant believe my doctors have not addressed any of this to me. I go in for surgery on the 19th. I limped in their office four different times, you think they would have asked if I was doing any kind of rehab. Toward the end of my last visit when we scheduled my surgery, I asked about any kind of work outs. He said biking is ok, walking around is ok, and that was it.
They should have realized I have been babying my knee, based on my limping into the office each visit, due to lack of knowledge and recent shock, and suggested I start doing all these rehab workouts. Thank you Doctor Jo, not only did you address all my pains, but you have given me the confidence I need to start rehab now. I am doing these things today and looking forward to a strong knee, for my surgery

It was really a bed luck for me to tore my ACL in some training activity and i went through nightmare thereafter. Finally i had ACL reconstruction surgery on 13 December in Sports injury center at Sufdarganj Hospital, Delhi. I felt blasting pain soon after surgery when i was awakened after numbness which was entrusted through anesthetics into my spine despite my upper body was already awake when surgery was performed i could see my leg operated without pain.
I was put on bed after surgery and soon after 3 to 4 hours i complained of soothing pain which was also disseminated throughout my body and hospital staff injected some pain revilers into my vain and pain suppressed to bearable level. Hospitals senior doctors visited the ward next day and also changed dressing. They also suggested me to press knee towards extension and given a set of exercises for the same and also told me to get up and walk with the help of crutches.
On third day i set off from hospital ward and landed home, but this journey was not easy though i traveled in an ambulance but on every ditch and path hole my knee told me to cry in pain. At home i was confined to bed for 2 days and only standing when i urged to use bathroom, moreover this i had to lay on same bed for one more day due to severe headache that felt at the front and back of my head when sitting or standing, due to spinal anesthesia and it got better only on day 5, until then i was on bed, resting and exercising in laying position.
On day 5, I came out of my apartment and seen light using my crutches. On day 7 i traveled a bit on my foot with help of crutches for about 100 meters and there was no pain in my knee, only pain remaining was when i try to sleep with my knee braces tied, it took me little longer to fell sleep then usual. On day 12 i was off crutches and traveled 100 meters with only braces on with out pain but i can not bend my knee and i have to be more conscious not to bump or avoid any dis-balance.
Today is my day 14 and i could extend my knee to a good level and flexion is about 70 degrees with little amount of pain, I do given knee exercises 3 to 4 times a day. I would be visiting hospital again on 28 December to get stitches removed and also post surgery checkup.
If i could help anyone in some way i know or you may feel kindly contact at 8826402901.
Today is the official 1 year anniversary of my surgery, and it still hurts slightly every now and then
I have a serious question for the experts on panel. “I have heard from many of friends they observed muscle wasting (Quadriceps, VMO) if they don’t continue physical activity after full recovery..?? Though they have recovered fully and back into sports.. And if they ignore playing or gym or physiotherapy, they notice more muscle wastage compared to non surgical leg.. And it was found that the girth of surgical leg is not equal to non surgical.. How to recover it??
Do one have to continue rehab life time?? When can one stop?
when i am doing these exercise,it makes a pop noise as if the bones inside rubbing each other.Is it okay?
I am an acl patient, only 15 days far away my operation were done

Question. I am 14 month after ACL repair via hamstring graft. Knee feels great, I can squat heavier weights than before surgery, walk, bike slow run no issues, but I can’t sprint for life as every time I even try to push myself to 50-60% speed my hamstring just gives up and I keep re-injuring it. Could it be that when they where taking the graft they damaged hamstring beyond repair? I am so frustrated spending countless hours working on my hamstring and not being able to return to soccer or basketball. I wish I was offered patella graft instead, I bet I would playing by now. Now my surgeon says it may take longer time for hamstring to recover but is it really just a matter of time?
Acl surgery 1 month later I have all yoke pains,,, please anybody advice me about this
I wish I watched this vid 2 years ago. Post acl surgery, I still cannot run, squart ��
Stages of Post op rehab
Dressing 2 to 3 days. Change to less bulky dressing and ace wrap so that bracing and ROM easier.
Stage 1 (3
4 weeks) Swelling ( taping, modalities, manual therapy) ROM ( knee flexion and ext) Strength ( knee extquads isom and hams Hip ) 10 to 20 min bouts about 3 timesCrutches Bracestart with locked in extension. Important to wear it during weight bearing as muscles are weak etc.
Stage 2 (wk 4 -16) Hip and knee weight bearing and control Squat Lunges Diaonal and Side to side, progress to resistance. Stationary bike, treadmill inclined, walk outside. Plan ahead of time for time commitment others can’t rehab for you. 45 minutes. Motivation. Muscle memory training. While watching TV or during PE.
Stage 3 Around week 16 onwards. Start moving and prepare to return to sport. Stable enough for movement retraining.
Mach of injury in ACL I landed I planted and I heard a pop. Medial collapse.
In the last stage we use glutei and hip and knee movement.
Jump, take off and land.Deceleration. Reversing. Slow and fast. 90 degree cuts. Complexity and speeds increased.
By month 6 tests for return to sportcut
Video
By month 9 to 12 formal tests for return to sport. Muscle strength testing. Static balance testing. Hop testing.
Single leg squat return to running.
Does knee feel normal.
Front of knee pain quads weakness
Popping or clicking meniscal tear and PF it.A lot of it goes away with therapy and better quads control and squat correctly hip and knee control to avoid load on front of knee
Pain not injury alone but wrong type of movement can cause it. Restructuring our thought process around pain.
How long PT? What you do at home close to an hour most days a week. Some unknown factors.
Home exercise programmehandouts, video with phone.
Can I follow these exercises as my acl reconstruction surgery was two weeks before from today.
Good vid., just a little annoying music…
But I’ve read a study, where they’ve measured the strain on the ACL and the most force it got with isometric tension from the quadriceps, followed by open chain movements like the straight leg raise. Therefore those exercises should be avoided in the first stage.
Do you have any other sources for this topic?
Can u please make a video and a rehab protocol with evidence base with tens ultrasounds and radio frequencies for calf for example strain? Calf or other muscle or tendon injury? With evidence base? As I am a student and I had an argument with my tutors during my msk placement here in the UK as back home (Greece) HELLAS they are using a lot of ultra sounds and radio frequencies and massage techniques and also the arthro tool and accupanture but here in UK nothing. Just exercise and stretching.thankss
Aye nice vid. Like the music bit. All of these exercises are appropriate in Phase 1?

Acl grade 3 ligament tear does it work.can I walk before surgery
I had an ACL Reconstruction Surgery 1 month ago using Hamstring graft. I was feeling OK, and so started walking with a gentle limp. However, once I was trying to pick up something from the floor and had a massive stretch on my hamstring. I also heard a cracking sound. My mobility is still the same as my level before this incident. However, it feels a bit strained and I observe a gentle bump and swelling behind the knee area.
Could you suggest me if it’s normal or may it heal naturally?
My insurance was only able to cover 4 weeks of therapy now I’m on my own:( I’m scared and hopefully everything goes well
I’m 14 and I’m having the surgery in a few weeks, any advice?
