Just got this surgery yesterday and it’s a lot more chill than I was expecting. The pain rn is less than when I actually tore my ACL. For anyone worried, about to go through this, it’s gonna be a lot better than u expect.
Surgery has always fascinated me. The fact that you can cut someone open. Fix their insides and stitch them back together and still be alive is amazing.
Medical science is an absolute WONDER. This is SO cool and so amazing, and I genuinely hope it gives new hope to people who need this kind of repair done to a damaged ACL. I had heard that we could fix these ACL tears now, but I didn't know they actually learned how to make your body grow a NEW one. That's WILD! I'm literally mind blown. Good luck to anyone suffering with this, looks like you're in good hands!
@@brownie3454not enough flack. People are taught so little of what happened in Asia during WW2 so much so that people like you delegate forced human experiments, rape, and cultural erasure as “stuff”. Hey, the Germans committed one of the most destructive genocides in recent memory but without them we wouldn’t have advanced aerospace engineering or BMWs. What a stupid conflation
Im 19 years old and for the first ever the captain of my football team, i play near the proffesional level so i really wanted to impress this year, i trained almost everyday of this summer vacation and went a lot to the gym. And in my 2nd pre season match i tore my acl… in other words my season is over and im not sure i will ever get to this level again. Im really devistated and so sad right now, i might never get this chance again. Life can be cruel
Same bro, I remember training with the boys for rugby, at the time I was told that I was going to be the captain, however after my injury, I've never been the same.
@@spaxmalayalam4292 after 4 months of the incident i took surgery, and with succes. I can play football again but unfortunaly not at the same level as i used to. Didnt expect the revalidation to be that mental but it was. but in the end for the better cause it really helped me understand and appreciate a lot things and made me grow as an individual. Now im playing lower division in a team with my friends and my all round life is the best it ever has been. Maybe just maybe i shouldve gotten injured haha. If youre going trough surgery or revalidation right now i wish you all best cause things will get better, trust me
@@tabassumjogimaddi1521 yes I underwent surgery soon after finding out I completely tore my ACL and partially tore my meniscus. I would recommend you talk to your physician about whether or not you need surgery. Depending on your lifestyle sometimes it is unnecessary. Post surgery I PT’ed and regained full functional strength of my leg. I am able to continue to do a lot of the things that I love.
Had an ACL reconstruction and partial meniscectomy 3 weeks ago. The first few days are the hardest (physically and mentally) but it gets better with time. Slowly getting ROM and strength through physio. We got this 💪
Writing this after 5 months of ACL surgery in my left leg.Had much pain during first 2 weeks and was able to walk without scrutches.Now i have started jogging, walking,going to gym as well ! Almost recovered fully.Don't hesitate to undergo this surgery and it's really worth.surgery is just like 20% of recovery and rest is physiotherapy 😊
@@rishavdhariwal4782 it's gonna be up to you if you want to rehab your knee into a strong one again. Also, responsibility to keep yourself from doing anything rash that will injure the knee
@@rishavdhariwal4782 you're gonna lose the thigh muscle depending on how it goes so it's going to be very weak. But you'll be fine. Rehabilitation is tough but not an impossible thing to do. If you been going to the gym, you'll indeed apply less stress on the leg after surgery so nice head start
Just completed the surgery two days ago,it wasn't that painful as I expected, hoping to get in prior lifestyle as soon as possible, those who are suffering from the same problem,may Allah help you all to recover from it soon❤
Good luck dude, learn from my mistakes and keep going with the rehab exercises! they help a shit ton and minimize the cartilage build up so you don't get all that clicking when you bend. I never did the exercises and I am paying for it every day
Had mine done in 94 used both patellar and hamstring for the graft. Rehabbed the hell out of it as I was a serious athlete and 28 years later i have had zero issues. MY carpenter did an outstanding job.
I''ve had two ACL surgeries one in 2011 & two weeks ago. Your worst pain is the first day. Excerise, icing, & physical therapy are the top three things to get back to your old self or even better. My surgeons were great & I'm back playing basketball. Good luck to you all (:
Kenya Perry Hi Kenya, I’m going through the rehab process now from my knee surgery and Have been found myself in the depths of the TH-cam rabbit hole lol. Anyway I Saw your comment in an old acl reconstruction video and just wanted to tell you that you have a gorgeous warm smile. Hopefully your knees are at still going strong.
Going through my second acl surgery. I had my first one 10 years ago.. The recovery was great, was back in active sport in less than 6 months.. Stay positive and active..
The most important football week of my life was about to happen: Trials for a top football team, training with senior team, and then go to play in a tournament with top class scouts. Yesterday I was trialing for the club, 30 minutes later I tore my ACL... This would be the worst experience I ever had physically and emotionally. If anyone else is going through the same, Chin up champ You’ll come back stronger 💪
Abasali had my second ACL operation done two days ago. I kinda have the same situation as u but with soccer...It’s gonna be really hard at times but if we work hard in PT we got this
Just did this 2 weeks ago during Gymnastics training. I was gonna have a comeback after 5 years and compete in the nationals one last time. However I got a bad landing on a backflip with triple twist. I'm pissed at myself and hate myself now. I could have avoided it, I've landed the trick before, but I pushed things too far. I was arrogant and underestimated the move. Now I feel like I don't even deserve to come back after that. But I will, only because I'm too pissed about what happened and the thought of leaving after that pisses me off even more.
i got surgery 6 days ago (october 20th, 2020). I had broken it on november 2019, so in the middle i trained hard. I had strong and flexible legs and body just before surgery. After it happened, I almost had no pain, good mobility, and so far I keep strong enough. Actually the day after surgery I started some exercises. Im sharing my experience because it is not always painful or terrible. It depends on each person. So live your experience and try to not compare yourself with others. Positive mind and patience.
@@tabassumjogimaddi1521 after a good physiotherapy recovery , the issue is solved. Normal life. If you are an athlet it is always recommended to do preventing exercises (even u got injured or not)
@@tabassumjogimaddi1521 it is very personal. It depends on how you feel.. make sure it is partial. Ask to more than 1 professional. If it is broken or a big partial tear, sooner or later it has negative impact on your knee (other ligaments, muscles, bones) because the structure of ur leg is being forced to cover the lack of the ligament function. Just my opinion, and im not a doctor, if it is partial and u are not playing sports o running.. maybe it is not necesary
Just had a complete ACL reconstruction 2 days ago, and once the nerve blocks wear off, that's when you feel the actual pain. My ACL was completely torn, and was just hanging off. I had partial tear to it 3 months ago, and had it repaired. 2 weeks ago, I was walking with the crutches, and brace when it popped, quite loud, and I had some pain immediately. I didn't know what just happened, and after few hours, I was kind of ok to carry on. Two days later, same thing happened again, only this time I was in much more pain. I will be spending the next 16 weeks in a brace. Wishing everyone else a speedy recovery, God bless you all! :)
I had this surgery back in 2003. Seventeen years later it's still doing well. I remember I strengthened my leg like crazy prior to surgery (I had 2 months until my surgery). Those 4 incisions turned my leg to mush. The entire back of my leg was the color of plumb when the took the wraps off 3 days later! If you get the surgery, then be sure to take the physical therapy seriously. I am not gonna lie...it hurts when they bend your knee to break up that scar tissue! However, if you want full range of motion, then it needs to happen. The strengthening exercises aren't painful. Just that leg bend thing! When I was in PT there was a college basketball player at the same. She cried in pain every time they pushed her heel towards her back side and I almost cried right along with her. It was the community of pain and thankfully...full recovery!
@@sorayanorman7683 for me... Yes. The original injury hurt and felt really weird, but after I iced it just ended up being sore ache very slightly swollen. Mine was a non-contact injury like many ACL tears.
Thank you so much, i'm confident enough now. I got my acl surgery done 2days back and i'm a bit confident now. I'm trying to walk with a little support..and the pain is minimal now. Hope i'll recover soon..
Great video! My daughter during the last trainnig of the season and before final match ruptured her ACL and torn meniscus. Disaster, she was divasteted!!! Tomorrow 4wks since she had a surgery, the pain she had to go through was unbelivable. Wish a quick recovery to everyone who is so unlucky to have this kind an injury.
Hoping for a quick and easy recover. I’m 8 weeks post surgery for my acl and it does get much much better. It’s relieving but also scary when you start doing strength exercises. Best wishes
3 and half years ago I had my knee done with this metode of ACL surgery...after recovery, my knee was perfect, also had meniscuses done, never had a pain after that. But a lot of work in the gym then. Anyone who is hesitant to undergo, it's worth it!!!
@@suhailchovvayil5553 first, you need to find your physical therapist and start all over again bettering the range of motion in a right way. flexion and extension of the knee must be perfect, then stretching the soft tissue. In order to have good recovery , you MUST follow the plan of physical therapist and don't exagerate even if you feel well with it. The implanted tissue of ACL is long to recover itself in the tibia bone and all of those bio/titan components. Then you strenghten your knees along with ankles and hips and deep stabilization muscles with the body weight and correctly. and after that (it can be 4 or 5 months, or more, that's individual) you can start lifting something, but slowly and smart. Always be in touch with your PT and follow the rules and plan. Because the surgery can be perfectly done, but if you don't follow the plan and rehabilitation, then it's useless. Good luck
@@vamsisrikanthrallabandi7015 right now after probably 6 years, no. No arthritis, or any inflamation, maybe one thing but that is specific, not-related to ACL and developed after is in my case mediopatellar plica.
Had it done 4 weeks ago, I can now walk about 500m without any help!! Your physical therapy is very important!! Hope you all recover fast after this operation.
As an avid sports and wrestling fan, I've always wondered why an ACL tear is a season ending injury. Now I know why and why it hurts so much! Very easy to follow and understand video that is highly educational
I blew my Acl out 30 years ago. I didn't want reconstruction then because they used metal screws. So I healed lifted weights. Eventually got back to playing football and a season of rugby. But now I'm occasionally having problems. This video gives me hope. Glad I waited
Absolutely amazing! I read somewhere that the biceps femoris tendon is actually stronger than the ACL. I don't think they simply insert the tendon into position either; I could be wrong, but I believe it gets twisted, in order to further increase the strength. It shows when you see these football players return, and look as if they were never injured in the first place. This WAS a career-ender probably as recently as the '80s or '90s! Edit: depending on which tendon is grafted, the tendon isn't twisted, it's folded to increase strength.
I always think about how amazing it is that someone thought of this, had to be tested and proven successful, and now it’s an easily repeatable procedure.
Almost a month into my rehab. It’s painful doing the physical therapy but if you do it correctly and religiously you will achieve fast results! Just have to stay positive and think trust the process. Just with a few days of cracking down and not baby my knee I’m feeling strength and range of motion coming back.
Almost a month post-surgery i can walk, my walk is still limp from time to time, but i can fully extend and almost fully bend my knee. I think i can feel the screws in my knee a bit and it is irritating sometimes but i am also training on my own aswell as going to physio and it shows great improvement
I just had the surgery yesterday morning (21 hours ago) and the nerve block is finally wearing off but to those who are worried about having this, the pain is not as bad as you think it will be.
@@adilcool292 Fully unconscious and put under anesthesia but they also did a nerve block at the hip that numbed the leg and that lasted about 24 hours after the surgery.
The week after my operation was the hardest week of my life. I had the patella tendon graft surgery done on my ACL. I swear, you're constantly doped up on pills the whole week after.
Just had this done today. Fun facts: hamstring graft creates an ACL around 4x stronger than a natural ACL once it's fully recovered, with only losing a maximum of 5% of hamstring strength (not a big deal, imagine curling 100 lbs with one and 95 with the other). Cadaver tissue usually isn't too good because it's not living and it's usually of older people who have more "mileage" on their ACL which makes it more fragile. Patellar tendon grafts are strong, but not as strong as hamstring.
2 years ago a glass door broke in and went through my knee. After 2 surgeries my ACL broke again and i have to go through another surgery. Hope this time it goes well because I don’t know what my life would be without any kind of sport 🥺
Just had the surgery and there was pain after but honestly it is not as bad as I thought and very manageable. I’m 5 days after and the worst was first 2/3 days. After that it’s not bad at all and all uphill. Y’all got this💪
@@Sirronkcuhc1 you are completely healed that provides me some comfort and sad to hear about the titanium issue. But sir can you play sports and perform naturally like you used to do before the injury
Thank you so much... For sharing your wide knowledge... Now I know.... I was ostheoastritis step 1...and undercover by orthopedi do the Fisioterapi and exercise
Had my ACL reconstruction surgery on 24/7/2023. Felt pain heavily after the surgery as soon as the anaesthesia effect went down, just for the first night. After that, I didn't feel much pain, and just a little bit of swelling, that's it. My recovery journey has been so good so far...
All my ligaments apart from my PCL ruptured due to a football injury (2021.09.04.) Rn I am waiting for this surgery that will be done on the 26th of november. I am 19 currently and the first month was just horrible. The thoughts like ,,why me” ,,my life’s ruined” slowly turned me into kinda depressed. Luckily I am okay now and got the right mindset to kill this shit no question. If I can give one advice to everyone who just got similar injuries , just forgot about these toxic thoughts give yourself 1-2 days until you let the fact that you’re injured settle in after that realize your life just changed, forgot your goals,plans that you had before. Your new goal is to make a 100% recovery. Keep it strong everyone❤️
This must be the new way, cause I had my knee cap tendon harvested as the ACL replacement, and I had 4 screws drilled in to hold it in place. Then they stapled my meniscus. And man, 25 years later it feels like surgery was done yesterday on some days. Still don't have full range of motion, can't straighten my leg completely and yes I went to PT religiously.
I'm currently on the wait list for this operation. I have torn of my frontal acl and a small portion of my miniscus. Also there is a part of my bone (0.5cmx1.2cm) chilling loosely in my knee. I got this while practicing jiu jitsu... I can say with confidence that sports aren't always healthy... I really hope that I recover fast and that i can get back to my full time college since my law degree won't wait..
Update: it's hurts.. Currently in rehabilitation from the surgery. First few days were brutal but I'm making progress 3 weeks after now. Unfortunately I can't walk normally so I can't go to work or university so I'm still at home.
A year and a half ago, was en route to a gas leakage call. My firehouse was despatched. Fully torned my ACL as well as meniscus due to the heavy weight of the bunker gear, BA cylinder and rescue tools. Knee snapped. Ran awkwardly to the scene. Told my commander that my leg felt like breaking. Came back to my firehouse, received medical attention to my swollen knee by medics and emt, went hospital the next day after shift ends, xray but unable to show what happened. MRI scanned and it shows clearly how badly my injury was... Recovered within 6 months after surgery, able to run(jog,sprint eventhough it will put on some pain), crawl(though it will hurt my surgical scar) squat, play sports and pretty much everything. Though the pain is on/off till this day. But till today, i tried taking extra precaution. Cause i know i wont be a good thing if it happen again.. TAKE CARE PEOPLE!
Had surgery a few months ago. Frustrating experience to say the least. Biggest fear I'm sure others have had is the confidence to play competitive sports again. I'm 32 and have played a lot. I'm thinking of just quitting sports like football and basketball and just staying active in safer ways (swimming, softball, running, gym) My biggest fear is tearing it again and having to go through this again.
So I’ve never had surgery before and I’m having an acl surgery tomorrow because mine was ruptured so bad that it didn’t show up on the mri and this makes less nervous so thank you 🙏
I am officially one year post op from this surgery! (My one year video is on my channel) but I am SO HAPPY I went through this surgery!!!! I tore it two years ago doing flips, and had surgery one year ago. I am now back to doing flips again (which I haven't been able to do since I've torn it) and i am soooooo happy. This is definitely worth doing. It is hard at first, but over time once everything heals, you can continue life as though "nothing" happened. Or at least that's what I'm able to do.
@@TraceurMaaz that's great can you share what are the things u have changed in your life style after surgery like what physical activity u have stopped after that
@@vamsisrikanthrallabandi7015 had my surgery 10+ years ago. nothing changed hugely. I played football and did some acrobatics which I haven't played since surgery. Everything else the same. Should have good healing after surgery.
@@erikap311 completely fine! Was walking 10 days post op and was completely fine after 6 months. It's been over 4 years now and do everything and more than I used to do. Same ROM, just a little less strength in the hamstring as that is where the graft was from. If you have any more questions feel free to ask 👍
duncantee Hey thanks so much for responding. I’m a professional bodybuilder and am getting my surgery in September. How many weeks did it take for you to get back into sports?
i have had 3. I had my left ACL repaired through patella graft my junior year in high school, my right repaired using patella my freshman year in college, and more recently a cadaver tendon used for my right as i retore it. From my experience as a college level athlete DO THE CADAVER. Many studies speak on the efficacy of each method, usually settling on hamstring is best for women athletes and patella men as our bodies are stronger on specific muscle groups. After speaking with multiple people who had the hamstring graft and myself going through the patella graft i can say that both cause many long term problems such as hamstring sprains/weakness, hamstring tears, and range of motion on bending, or like myself severe patellar tendonitis and range of motion on extension. In the end the cadaver healing process was 100X easier as my range of motion came back, there was less stitches (the patellar scar is 4-5 inches long down the front of your knee), less swelling, i was able to walk sooner and therapists typically feel more comfortable with you doing strength training sooner. After doing a lot of research on the subject for my most recent reconstruction (as i still play soccer recreationally) i didn't find enough evidence for hamstring/patellar being superior to warrant it. One of my biggest mistakes in my life will have been doing the patellar grafts and i will forever look on my knee scars wishing i did the cadavers. If you are looking at this video to prepare, take my advice and do some research on the recovery process of each as that is the MOST important part, and the cadaver recovery is so much easier. recovering from the patellar surgery felt like pure torture.
I too had both of my knees done with the patella, personally I love the scars, but I understand why you wouldn’t, not the prettiest things to look at. Just had the right knee down about a week ago so I’m still rehabbing, hope I don’t get any tendinitis hear it’s very painful. Luckily didn’t have any problems with the left side pain but I did develop a cyclops legion the size of a golf ball that prevented full ROM, had a second surgery to take it out and I was perfectly fine again.
I just got my MRI results which showed I tore my ACL. My doctor recommended the hamstring graft and this video seemed to as well. Although I'm definitely gonna research this a little more.
@@michaelconroy5344 Yes, tendonitis and full ROM were my issues on both Patella graph surgeries. The initial days after the surgery were also 5X worse in pain and ROM as compared to cadaver. The incision is smaller (you only have the three small incisions). After going through both and doing extensive research i just have not found enough of a difference to warrant getting patella or hamstring done since they literally cut those out of your body. The cadaver reject rate is so low and they d great testing for efficacy now , and the recovery was so much easier. I would always recommend it every single time.I hope your recovery goes well!
@@RFKtoenail The hamstring graft is popular, often a doctor specializes in one (Patella, hamstring, cadaver). The hamstring is more popular for females because they tend to be hamstring dominant and patella for males as they are quad dominant. I have two friends who got the hamstring done and they had hamstrin sprains/tears for years after. This could be just them and their training, but hamstring recovery is also harder on getting your full bending back due to them cutting the muscle. I have heard the pain and recover can be somewhat easier on hamstring because it is in a different portion of the knee whereas patella is cutting out one ligament in your knee to replace a ligament... in your knee. I would still recommend cadaver just from my own personal experience, but the most important parts are going to be 1. Finding a good doctor who has the procedure down (whatever procedure they use) and 2. a good physical therapist/regimen.
I just had an acl reconstruction 4 weeks ago it is really cool to see this and now can understand what my surgeon is telling me about really good video
Just have my acl surgery 4 weeks ago. Took me 6 yrs b4 agreeing bcoz of repeated injury I encountered. Just too afraid of the surgery but turns out to be a good decision. Now my knee is reconstructed I will not be always be bothered of my unstable knee everyday. After the rehab and my knees if fully healed I can go back to my active lifestyle which was denied to me 6yrs of my life. Advice don't be afraid of the surgery!
Im 3 days after surgery. Almost every movement hurts so bad I cry like a baby but despite it Im doing excercises 3 times a day for 20-30 minutes. I cannot stress how important it is to get your knee to straight position. If you cannot get your knee straighten untill week 6, you may never fully recover and graft can easily snap, in 2 years. Almost no one talks about it. They just tell you what to do without telling why is this so important. I just had my acl done and started excercising the next day after surgery, timing might be different if you had other things done but its very important not to neglect it.
Hey! It's been a while since i posted this! I've got to say that, if I do sports regularly (going to gym, strengthen the quadriceps) I can do any sport. It doesn't hurt but i felt like I've lost a little bit of flexibility on my left knee, where i had the surgery, but if I do work it will be back as usual. Honestly, i can do a pretty normal life, do whatever I can and doing every sport, but I'm more conscious than before
@@khoantruong6863 of course, the first two weeks were really painful, i was in meds all day to endure the pain, but in the end it went well, after the third month i didn't have pain at all and started to have a 'normal' life. After the sixth month, I was able to do sport again. Painful, but it was worth it.
Went through this 2 weeks ago, was dealing with torn acl from almost a year now, which made my other mucles weak, and now rehab is been going on, surgery was not that painful thanks to all pain killing meds, but therapy is helllll, im a freelancer eneded up dropping 2 of my clients due to mentally and physically challanging therapy session. If you pain tolerance is high then you can easily survive, if not YOU CAN STILL DO IT! But get that surgery its not worth delaying that. Good luck ask if you have any questions ⬇️
thank you very much for this video. i recently went through an acl reconstruction surgery in Korea. this video was informative to understand how the surgery was done 👍
I have torn my acl, pcl and damaged my meniscus over the course of 4 years, consider yourself lucky if you didn't get someting else along with an ACL tear...
@@hoodstraps3524 just finished arthroscopic surgery so my surgeon can get a better picture of what's going on inside my knee. I'm banking on full ACL tear. 🤷♂️ I suppose I'll need to be scheduled for this surgery soon
I feel u man. I just had mine done a week and a half ago. Worse week ever! Pain like no tmrw. Just started physio tho. Can't wait myself to be active again.
just had this procedure completed 48 hours ago. tore my acl playing high school football. if u get a choice between general anesthetic or a spinal shot take the spinal shot!! the drugs are awesome lmao and youll feel more refreshed when u wake up in the recovery room. the day after the surgery is a little worse and this morning was again more painful for me but this is the worst it should get (knock on wood) and it is very similar to the pain in the days following the original tear so its nothing u havent experienced already. take lots of painkillers and use cold therapy machine as often as u can! :-)
I've been dancing professionally for 13 years and never had an injury until I slipped during a performance and completely tore my ACL. I am getting surgery this month. A bit nervous after reading all your comments. I was told I will be able to dance after 4 months with intense physio. but I guess it is dependent on the person and surgery itself.
I tore mine when I was 18. had a job as tissue recovery tech later on in life. was interesting seeing and cutting the ligament to separate the tibia and fibia
Just got this surgery yesterday and it’s a lot more chill than I was expecting. The pain rn is less than when I actually tore my ACL. For anyone worried, about to go through this, it’s gonna be a lot better than u expect.

How is your knee now please tell us..many of us want to know??
Good luck dude, learn from my mistakes and keep going with the rehab exercises! they help a shit ton and minimize the cartilage build up so you don't get all that clicking when you bend. I never did the exercises and I am paying for it every day

Hi Kenya, I’m going through the rehab process now from my knee surgery and Have been found myself in the depths of the TH-cam rabbit hole lol. Anyway I Saw your comment in an old acl reconstruction video and just wanted to tell you that you have a gorgeous warm smile. Hopefully your knees are at still going strong.
Did u find any indication of arthritis after acl surgery plz tell me
i had it 4 months ago. in the middle of my PT now. wasnt bad at all, just prepare for a lot of leg days in gym :D
Going through my second acl surgery. I had my first one 10 years ago.. The recovery was great, was back in active sport in less than 6 months.. Stay positive and active..
The most important football week of my life was about to happen: Trials for a top football team, training with senior team, and then go to play in a tournament with top class scouts. Yesterday I was trialing for the club, 30 minutes later I tore my ACL... This would be the worst experience I ever had physically and emotionally. If anyone else is going through the same, Chin up champ
You’ll come back stronger 💪
Abasali had my second ACL operation done two days ago. I kinda have the same situation as u but with soccer...It’s gonna be really hard at times but if we work hard in PT we got this
DaReal_ NVP I meant soccer, but I call it football
Abasali haha my bad, I’m American so sometimes I get thrown off 😂. Good luck with your recovery
Agreed. It can really knock one out. We'll get back stronger after the fight !🤘
Just did this 2 weeks ago during Gymnastics training. I was gonna have a comeback after 5 years and compete in the nationals one last time.
However I got a bad landing on a backflip with triple twist.
I'm pissed at myself and hate myself now. I could have avoided it, I've landed the trick before, but I pushed things too far. I was arrogant and underestimated the move.
Now I feel like I don't even deserve to come back after that. But I will, only because I'm too pissed about what happened and the thought of leaving after that pisses me off even more.
i got surgery 6 days ago (october 20th, 2020). I had broken it on november 2019, so in the middle i trained hard. I had strong and flexible legs and body just before surgery. After it happened, I almost had no pain, good mobility, and so far I keep strong enough. Actually the day after surgery I started some exercises. Im sharing my experience because it is not always painful or terrible. It depends on each person. So live your experience and try to not compare yourself with others. Positive mind and patience.
I have partial tear .. I am 25 ... I am undergoing physiotherapy... Is surgery a permanent treatment?
@@tabassumjogimaddi1521 after a good physiotherapy recovery , the issue is solved. Normal life. If you are an athlet it is always recommended to do preventing exercises (even u got injured or not)
@@IakuPeabody I am not an athelete.. since I was not recommended for surgery.. I am wandering whether to undergo surgery since it's partial tear..
@@IakuPeabody now u r going to tell me is surgery is must or physiotherapy is enough.. 😔
@@tabassumjogimaddi1521 it is very personal. It depends on how you feel.. make sure it is partial. Ask to more than 1 professional. If it is broken or a big partial tear, sooner or later it has negative impact on your knee (other ligaments, muscles, bones) because the structure of ur leg is being forced to cover the lack of the ligament function.
Just my opinion, and im not a doctor, if it is partial and u are not playing sports o running.. maybe it is not necesary
I had acl reconstruction with hamstring in 2011. I ran again in 6 weeks! Rehab strong!
That's awesome!
Fake
Just had a complete ACL reconstruction 2 days ago, and once the nerve blocks wear off, that's when you feel the actual pain. My ACL was completely torn, and was just hanging off. I had partial tear to it 3 months ago, and had it repaired. 2 weeks ago, I was walking with the crutches, and brace when it popped, quite loud, and I had some pain immediately. I didn't know what just happened, and after few hours, I was kind of ok to carry on. Two days later, same thing happened again, only this time I was in much more pain. I will be spending the next 16 weeks in a brace. Wishing everyone else a speedy recovery, God bless you all! :)

I had this surgery back in 2003. Seventeen years later it's still doing well. I remember I strengthened my leg like crazy prior to surgery (I had 2 months until my surgery). Those 4 incisions turned my leg to mush. The entire back of my leg was the color of plumb when the took the wraps off 3 days later! If you get the surgery, then be sure to take the physical therapy seriously. I am not gonna lie...it hurts when they bend your knee to break up that scar tissue! However, if you want full range of motion, then it needs to happen. The strengthening exercises aren't painful. Just that leg bend thing! When I was in PT there was a college basketball player at the same. She cried in pain every time they pushed her heel towards her back side and I almost cried right along with her. It was the community of pain and thankfully...full recovery!
I’m struggling to bend my leg I’m screaming everyday and to be honest I’m close to giving up cause the pain is just too much
It took me two months to get surgery because I had no money and I lost a lot of muscle
how are you now?
The pain of the bend thing is much worse than when the ACL tear happens?
@@sorayanorman7683 for me... Yes. The original injury hurt and felt really weird, but after I iced it just ended up being sore ache very slightly swollen. Mine was a non-contact injury like many ACL tears.
Thank you so much, i'm confident enough now.
I got my acl surgery done 2days back and i'm a bit confident now.
I'm trying to walk with a little support..and the pain is minimal now.
Hope i'll recover soon..
Great video! My daughter during the last trainnig of the season and before final match ruptured her ACL and torn meniscus. Disaster, she was divasteted!!! Tomorrow 4wks since she had a surgery, the pain she had to go through was unbelivable. Wish a quick recovery to everyone who is so unlucky to have this kind an injury.
Hoping for a quick and easy recover. I’m 8 weeks post surgery for my acl and it does get much much better. It’s relieving but also scary when you start doing strength exercises. Best wishes
@@cooperlaw76 hey, how are you now? How much time did it take to get back to normal?

Good wishes.
How's she now
Dude this is so cool!!! You can use a TENDON to replace a LIGAMENT and it literally MORPHS into a ligament
3 and half years ago I had my knee done with this metode of ACL surgery...after recovery, my knee was perfect, also had meniscuses done, never had a pain after that. But a lot of work in the gym then. Anyone who is hesitant to undergo, it's worth it!!!
Did u find any indication of arthritis after acl surgery plz tell me
When did you start to go gym..how many days put leg workout in gym
@@suhailchovvayil5553 first, you need to find your physical therapist and start all over again bettering the range of motion in a right way. flexion and extension of the knee must be perfect, then stretching the soft tissue. In order to have good recovery , you MUST follow the plan of physical therapist and don't exagerate even if you feel well with it. The implanted tissue of ACL is long to recover itself in the tibia bone and all of those bio/titan components. Then you strenghten your knees along with ankles and hips and deep stabilization muscles with the body weight and correctly. and after that (it can be 4 or 5 months, or more, that's individual) you can start lifting something, but slowly and smart. Always be in touch with your PT and follow the rules and plan. Because the surgery can be perfectly done, but if you don't follow the plan and rehabilitation, then it's useless.
Good luck
@@vamsisrikanthrallabandi7015 right now after probably 6 years, no. No arthritis, or any inflamation, maybe one thing but that is specific, not-related to ACL and developed after is in my case mediopatellar plica.
How many weeks until you were able to walk unassisted?
wow. thiis is nice to know how my doctor did it. visual makes it clearer. i wish they show video like this prior to surgery during your doctors visit.
Just got mine done 4weeks in and I can’t wait for the ligaments to form and get stronger great video 🥶💯👍🏾😁…
It’s so interesting how the body adapts and knows what certain parts need to fit a certain function
Had it done 4 weeks ago, I can now walk about 500m without any help!! Your physical therapy is very important!! Hope you all recover fast after this operation.
As an avid sports and wrestling fan, I've always wondered why an ACL tear is a season ending injury. Now I know why and why it hurts so much! Very easy to follow and understand video that is highly educational
Did u find any indication of arthritis after acl surgery plz tell me
The quality of this video is amazing, Great work!
I blew my Acl out 30 years ago. I didn't want reconstruction then because they used metal screws. So I healed lifted weights. Eventually got back to playing football and a season of rugby. But now I'm occasionally having problems. This video gives me hope. Glad I waited
Absolutely amazing! I read somewhere that the biceps femoris tendon is actually stronger than the ACL. I don't think they simply insert the tendon into position either; I could be wrong, but I believe it gets twisted, in order to further increase the strength. It shows when you see these football players return, and look as if they were never injured in the first place. This WAS a career-ender probably as recently as the '80s or '90s!
Edit: depending on which tendon is grafted, the tendon isn't twisted, it's folded to increase strength.
When you fall asleep first at the sleepover:
I always think about how amazing it is that someone thought of this, had to be tested and proven successful, and now it’s an easily repeatable procedure.
Almost a month into my rehab. It’s painful doing the physical therapy but if you do it correctly and religiously you will achieve fast results! Just have to stay positive and think trust the process. Just with a few days of cracking down and not baby my knee I’m feeling strength and range of motion coming back.
Almost a month post-surgery i can walk, my walk is still limp from time to time, but i can fully extend and almost fully bend my knee. I think i can feel the screws in my knee a bit and it is irritating sometimes but i am also training on my own aswell as going to physio and it shows great improvement
I love medical videos like this, thank you!
I just had the surgery yesterday morning (21 hours ago) and the nerve block is finally wearing off but to those who are worried about having this, the pain is not as bad as you think it will be.
Does it pain during the surgery? Or do they render you unconscious before that.
Do they fully unconscious you or just the leg ?
@@adilcool292 Fully unconscious and put under anesthesia but they also did a nerve block at the hip that numbed the leg and that lasted about 24 hours after the surgery.
@@tigerpaw371 Thank you for informing.

Best explanation I’ve seen so far. Thank you!
The week after my operation was the hardest week of my life. I had the patella tendon graft surgery done on my ACL. I swear, you're constantly doped up on pills the whole week after.
Just had this done today. Fun facts: hamstring graft creates an ACL around 4x stronger than a natural ACL once it's fully recovered, with only losing a maximum of 5% of hamstring strength (not a big deal, imagine curling 100 lbs with one and 95 with the other). Cadaver tissue usually isn't too good because it's not living and it's usually of older people who have more "mileage" on their ACL which makes it more fragile. Patellar tendon grafts are strong, but not as strong as hamstring.
Tore my PCL, MCL, ACL, and LCL last January. Therapy hasn't been easy but I'm happy to be working again. Still struggles but I'm blessed.
I didnt expect these much comments about Klay. Funny im here because of him too. Wishing him a speedy recovery.
2 years ago a glass door broke in and went through my knee. After 2 surgeries my ACL broke again and i have to go through another surgery. Hope this time it goes well because I don’t know what my life would be without any kind of sport 🥺
Im getting this done soon and im xcited :)
Just had the surgery and there was pain after but honestly it is not as bad as I thought and very manageable. I’m 5 days after and the worst was first 2/3 days. After that it’s not bad at all and all uphill. Y’all got this💪
This video is very relieving. I need to have this procedure done in three weeks and it feels great to know what will happen.

Had my ACL reconstruction surgery on 24/7/2023. Felt pain heavily after the surgery as soon as the anaesthesia effect went down, just for the first night. After that, I didn't feel much pain, and just a little bit of swelling, that's it. My recovery journey has been so good so far...
All my ligaments apart from my PCL ruptured due to a football injury (2021.09.04.) Rn I am waiting for this surgery that will be done on the 26th of november. I am 19 currently and the first month was just horrible. The thoughts like ,,why me” ,,my life’s ruined” slowly turned me into kinda depressed. Luckily I am okay now and got the right mindset to kill this shit no question. If I can give one advice to everyone who just got similar injuries , just forgot about these toxic thoughts give yourself 1-2 days until you let the fact that you’re injured settle in after that realize your life just changed, forgot your goals,plans that you had before. Your new goal is to make a 100% recovery. Keep it strong everyone❤️
This must be the new way, cause I had my knee cap tendon harvested as the ACL replacement, and I had 4 screws drilled in to hold it in place. Then they stapled my meniscus. And man, 25 years later it feels like surgery was done yesterday on some days. Still don't have full range of motion, can't straighten my leg completely and yes I went to PT religiously.
I dislocated my knee and tore my acl mcl and lcl I get surgery in a couple hours wish me luck
I hope you alright
How are you bro?

I'm currently on the wait list for this operation. I have torn of my frontal acl and a small portion of my miniscus. Also there is a part of my bone (0.5cmx1.2cm) chilling loosely in my knee. I got this while practicing jiu jitsu... I can say with confidence that sports aren't always healthy... I really hope that I recover fast and that i can get back to my full time college since my law degree won't wait..
Update: it's hurts..
Currently in rehabilitation from the surgery. First few days were brutal but I'm making progress 3 weeks after now. Unfortunately I can't walk normally so I can't go to work or university so I'm still at home.
Hey man, you got this. Much love and thanks for sharing
A year and a half ago, was en route to a gas leakage call. My firehouse was despatched. Fully torned my ACL as well as meniscus due to the heavy weight of the bunker gear, BA cylinder and rescue tools. Knee snapped. Ran awkwardly to the scene. Told my commander that my leg felt like breaking. Came back to my firehouse, received medical attention to my swollen knee by medics and emt, went hospital the next day after shift ends, xray but unable to show what happened. MRI scanned and it shows clearly how badly my injury was... Recovered within 6 months after surgery, able to run(jog,sprint eventhough it will put on some pain), crawl(though it will hurt my surgical scar) squat, play sports and pretty much everything. Though the pain is on/off till this day. But till today, i tried taking extra precaution. Cause i know i wont be a good thing if it happen again.. TAKE CARE PEOPLE!
I had surgery like 5 days ago and the pain is unimaginable, and trust you’re going to get irritated of just resting the whole day for months ☹️

Had surgery a few months ago. Frustrating experience to say the least. Biggest fear I'm sure others have had is the confidence to play competitive sports again. I'm 32 and have played a lot. I'm thinking of just quitting sports like football and basketball and just staying active in safer ways (swimming, softball, running, gym)
My biggest fear is tearing it again and having to go through this again.

Left knee ACL Reconstruction done. 2 months out. Right knee done 20 years ago. Damn basketball.
I am officially one year post op from this surgery! (My one year video is on my channel) but I am SO HAPPY I went through this surgery!!!! I tore it two years ago doing flips, and had surgery one year ago. I am now back to doing flips again (which I haven't been able to do since I've torn it) and i am soooooo happy. This is definitely worth doing. It is hard at first, but over time once everything heals, you can continue life as though "nothing" happened. Or at least that's what I'm able to do.

Thank you, fantastically made video so informative, that even a lay man, can easily understand it.
i have had 3. I had my left ACL repaired through patella graft my junior year in high school, my right repaired using patella my freshman year in college, and more recently a cadaver tendon used for my right as i retore it.
From my experience as a college level athlete DO THE CADAVER. Many studies speak on the efficacy of each method, usually settling on hamstring is best for women athletes and patella men as our bodies are stronger on specific muscle groups. After speaking with multiple people who had the hamstring graft and myself going through the patella graft i can say that both cause many long term problems such as hamstring sprains/weakness, hamstring tears, and range of motion on bending, or like myself severe patellar tendonitis and range of motion on extension.
In the end the cadaver healing process was 100X easier as my range of motion came back, there was less stitches (the patellar scar is 4-5 inches long down the front of your knee), less swelling, i was able to walk sooner and therapists typically feel more comfortable with you doing strength training sooner. After doing a lot of research on the subject for my most recent reconstruction (as i still play soccer recreationally) i didn't find enough evidence for hamstring/patellar being superior to warrant it. One of my biggest mistakes in my life will have been doing the patellar grafts and i will forever look on my knee scars wishing i did the cadavers. If you are looking at this video to prepare, take my advice and do some research on the recovery process of each as that is the MOST important part, and the cadaver recovery is so much easier. recovering from the patellar surgery felt like pure torture.
I too had both of my knees done with the patella, personally I love the scars, but I understand why you wouldn’t, not the prettiest things to look at. Just had the right knee down about a week ago so I’m still rehabbing, hope I don’t get any tendinitis hear it’s very painful. Luckily didn’t have any problems with the left side pain but I did develop a cyclops legion the size of a golf ball that prevented full ROM, had a second surgery to take it out and I was perfectly fine again.
I just got my MRI results which showed I tore my ACL. My doctor recommended the hamstring graft and this video seemed to as well. Although I'm definitely gonna research this a little more.
@@michaelconroy5344 Yes, tendonitis and full ROM were my issues on both Patella graph surgeries. The initial days after the surgery were also 5X worse in pain and ROM as compared to cadaver. The incision is smaller (you only have the three small incisions). After going through both and doing extensive research i just have not found enough of a difference to warrant getting patella or hamstring done since they literally cut those out of your body. The cadaver reject rate is so low and they d great testing for efficacy now , and the recovery was so much easier. I would always recommend it every single time.I hope your recovery goes well!
@@RFKtoenail The hamstring graft is popular, often a doctor specializes in one (Patella, hamstring, cadaver). The hamstring is more popular for females because they tend to be hamstring dominant and patella for males as they are quad dominant. I have two friends who got the hamstring done and they had hamstrin sprains/tears for years after. This could be just them and their training, but hamstring recovery is also harder on getting your full bending back due to them cutting the muscle. I have heard the pain and recover can be somewhat easier on hamstring because it is in a different portion of the knee whereas patella is cutting out one ligament in your knee to replace a ligament... in your knee. I would still recommend cadaver just from my own personal experience, but the most important parts are going to be 1. Finding a good doctor who has the procedure down (whatever procedure they use) and 2. a good physical therapist/regimen.
People who actually know about the struggle of going through this. Speedy recoveries for everyone
I just had an acl reconstruction 4 weeks ago it is really cool to see this and now can understand what my surgeon is telling me about really good video
Did u find any indication of arthritis after acl surgery plz tell me
Just have my acl surgery 4 weeks ago. Took me 6 yrs b4 agreeing bcoz of repeated injury I encountered. Just too afraid of the surgery but turns out to be a good decision. Now my knee is reconstructed I will not be always be bothered of my unstable knee everyday. After the rehab and my knees if fully healed I can go back to my active lifestyle which was denied to me 6yrs of my life. Advice don't be afraid of the surgery!
Omg do I not know what D Rose has gone through that looks rly painful
When my acl tore it also yanked up a chunk of bone they had to shave down, painful as flip
Im 3 days after surgery. Almost every movement hurts so bad I cry like a baby but despite it Im doing excercises 3 times a day for 20-30 minutes. I cannot stress how important it is to get your knee to straight position. If you cannot get your knee straighten untill week 6, you may never fully recover and graft can easily snap, in 2 years. Almost no one talks about it. They just tell you what to do without telling why is this so important. I just had my acl done and started excercising the next day after surgery, timing might be different if you had other things done but its very important not to neglect it.
i got a friend who recovered in four months from a complete tear!! it can be done!!
I had this done 3 years ago and my knee is back to normal like how it was before the injury. It was fully healed in 10 months

Good luck! I'm recovering from it now, patience is the key!
hey, how is it in the long run. Does it ever hurt years after?
Hey! It's been a while since i posted this! I've got to say that, if I do sports regularly (going to gym, strengthen the quadriceps) I can do any sport.
It doesn't hurt but i felt like I've lost a little bit of flexibility on my left knee, where i had the surgery, but if I do work it will be back as usual.
Honestly, i can do a pretty normal life, do whatever I can and doing every sport, but I'm more conscious than before
Tatiago93 hi, did you feel painful after a day of surgery?
@@khoantruong6863 of course, the first two weeks were really painful, i was in meds all day to endure the pain, but in the end it went well, after the third month i didn't have pain at all and started to have a 'normal' life. After the sixth month, I was able to do sport again. Painful, but it was worth it.
Went through this 2 weeks ago, was dealing with torn acl from almost a year now, which made my other mucles weak, and now rehab is been going on, surgery was not that painful thanks to all pain killing meds, but therapy is helllll, im a freelancer eneded up dropping 2 of my clients due to mentally and physically challanging therapy session. If you pain tolerance is high then you can easily survive, if not YOU CAN STILL DO IT! But get that surgery its not worth delaying that. Good luck ask if you have any questions ⬇️

I’d consider myself lucky if i didn’t need any surgery in my life at all
Excellent explanation. I'm going to have to have this done on my left knee sometime this year.
Just had it done on my left knee I’m 6 days in not as bad as you think just a lot of laying in bed and relaxing hope your recovery goes well!
@@hoodstraps3524 yes I just tore my acl as well and hoping not to get surgery but they say that it will take up to 6-9 months for full recovery
@@hoodstraps3524 just finished arthroscopic surgery so my surgeon can get a better picture of what's going on inside my knee. I'm banking on full ACL tear. 🤷♂️ I suppose I'll need to be scheduled for this surgery soon
Very informative clip. I'm looking forward to my surgery now.
7 months on and I’m going strong 💪
Yes same like me, one years after acl surgery, i can do my activities normally. Like a playing badminton n futsal again, lift the weight load.
I'm 3 weeks post the operation and busy with rehabilitation phase its a great feeling knowing I'll be active again. 9 months is a very long way to go
I feel u man. I just had mine done a week and a half ago. Worse week ever! Pain like no tmrw. Just started physio tho. Can't wait myself to be active again.
just had this procedure completed 48 hours ago. tore my acl playing high school football. if u get a choice between general anesthetic or a spinal shot take the spinal shot!! the drugs are awesome lmao and youll feel more refreshed when u wake up in the recovery room. the day after the surgery is a little worse and this morning was again more painful for me but this is the worst it should get (knock on wood) and it is very similar to the pain in the days following the original tear so its nothing u havent experienced already. take lots of painkillers and use cold therapy machine as often as u can! :-)
I was able to get both the nerve block and General anesthesia. Still hurt the next morning like yours did but I was off the pain pills 4 days later.
I’m 16 years post op with this same exact procedure. My knee still feels great.
I've been dancing professionally for 13 years and never had an injury until I slipped during a performance and completely tore my ACL. I am getting surgery this month. A bit nervous after reading all your comments. I was told I will be able to dance after 4 months with intense physio. but I guess it is dependent on the person and surgery itself.
How did surgery go
