Damn sorry about that, how does your knee range of motion feel right now. I wouldn’t go into surgery with a stiff or swollen knee that can’t really move because recovery & rehab gonna be much longer & harder.

@@y.h_3 no full range of motion is back no more pain or swelling it's gotten better over the years probably around 2022. Only feels unstable when I have sudden unanticipated movements. Otherwise it's fine. But I can't play any high impact/contact sports.

@@jasonngeno1651 ok that’s good. I’m 3 weeks post ACL surgery and honestly first 2 weeks were pretty hard but now I’m starting to see the progress of my physio/ rehab I’m starting to walk now, it’s a still a long journey to get back to playing sports, you just really got to focus on your physio & rehab. If your willing to work hard & go through that journey to get better, then you should do surgery but if your ok with not playing sports or being super active and your fine with how your knee feels now, then you should just do exercises to get your knee stronger !!

Half of them can heal on their own and if you follow a brace protocol potentially 90% of them can heal

How you are doing? which grade injury was? what's PT/Exercise and treatment plan you following?

@@towkircontent I found a surgeon who specializes in ACL repair surgery, and I ended up going with him. I completely tore my ACL (I forget what grade this is, grade 3?) based off the MRI. I got surgery on 4/12 and I’m already doing plyometric work, hopping on one leg, single leg squats, basically at about 7/8 months post surgery if I got a reconstruction. My ACL was showing signs of healing when the surgeon got in there, so maybe if I rehabbed it for 1-2 years I could’ve done no surgery, but I’ll never know. I’m overall happy with the ACL repair, as it was a minimal amount of work, no graft from another tendon!! However I definitely still feel a difference, there are no two ways about it, I tore a ligament. ACL repair for me, if you are a candidate for it (depends on how you tore your ACL) is a good bridge between no surgery and an ACL recon.

Hi Andrea, Mick Hughes is using DynaMo (compression, traction, ROM & Grip Strength HHD) from VALD Health.
