@iRaveRobot Long term side effects, its been about8 months since i have had mine done, and the only side effect i have is that its very hard for me to crouch, I ride Bmx so it effects me very much, but maybe you won’t have the same side effect?
Had mine done august 26. Back to playing basketball in 5 months, football after 8. Tore left lateral and medial meniscus, repaired medial, removed some lateral. Also had acl reconstruction with allograft.
@ockings7 thats what happens to me. i have my ACL torn for three months and i haven’t made the surgery yet. i do feel the pain when i bend the knee for a long time but i don’t feel it on stairs though. I tore my knee when i was playing soccer with crazy people that don’t know anything about soccer. my doctor told me that i will have 75% of the chance to tear the ACL again after the surgery
@englishtoarab, it wont be back to normal completley, it depends on exactly what there doing to you. im still not 100% back to norman after 7 in a half months. you mostly feel pain on stairs or when u bend that knee too much or for too long, like while your sitting down.
I have a question please answer me. Will i feel the pain or will my knee be as normal as before after the ACL surgery and after the recommended period of time like 6 or 7 months?
i had this happen to me….they shaved my minuscus and reconstructed my acl and put two screws inside of me…im a 15 year old girl and i play soccer…my surgery was in mid november…im still going through pysical thearapy
WTF is that teeth thing at the beginning that is scuffing everything up? I wish i didn’t watch this now, found at last week looks like I need a recon. Looking at getting LARS surgery done.
i had acl surgery 3 days ago. thanks to the numbing medicine they gave me, i dnt feel a thing. lol but the pain has been kickin in due to the meds. wearin off.
@iraverobot. I had mine done some years back an ACL recon and a lat menicus repair. I returned to playing sport about 12 months after the OP but any form of manual work, I think your sound after 4 months. As a hole the repair holds up well for physically demanding work- but more extreem twisting & stress with sport I feel you have to hold back or compensate for the injury(only draw back)
i had an ACL surgery for over 5 months now, I still feel pain when i sit down for long periods and i still cant bend my leg all the way. i can walk normal now, but sometimes if i walk a lot like in a shopping mall say, i will have to take short breaks cause i start to limp. I dont think that it will be back to normal again, i still have to wait. hopefully it will
I had my right acl repaired 6 days ago, and both the meniscus, they managed to fix one of them but couldn’t do anything with the other. I can’t play competitive football for a year tho! This is the second rupture I’ve had in 6 years, did my left when I was 19!
i had this operation two monthes ago and im already doing light jogging in a straight line. Im only 13 and i play vollyball softball and basketball so im lucky i tore it early so it doesnt ruin my highschool career
I have done my ACL reconstruction and Mensicus repair one and half month. I still have some sort of swelling and pain when I walk more in shoping malls and so. I’m regularly doing excercise. I hope pain and swelling will reduce after two months. gafu
I had my ACL reconstructed with muscle and ALL my cartilage taken out my knee 2 years ago, im now looking at a 3rd operation to have a total knee replacement. all i reconmend is that if you have this surgery be prepared to not do normal activites every again. i used to snowboard and cant do that now, thats fine but little activites like walking up and down stairs, cant sit on a chair unless my foor is flat on the floor, and this is 2 years on. just be careful and try to do anything but surgery.
hello folks, i had my left knee acl repaired and lateral and medial meniscus repair. medial feels like when knee locks up i suspected tear…mri states lateral meniscus tore of tibia…all this fun caused my learning how to clear jump my dirt bike..bike literally was vertical…enough time to think of which knee to take out…HooRRAH! O what a feeling! Be patient during recovery! Take care! Jesus Christ Loves you!
Im 15 and iv torn my acl and meniscus im really scared im having surgery in 2 weeks and im proper crapping it. But at least its going to be over i done it in football which is soccer last febuary so i had to wait over a year and in that time. Iv done it 4 times
I am going to my ACL and meniscus repaired. I just need to know how soon I can walk. I am in my twenties and very athletic. I have a summer internsip in an ER and need to be able to filfull my duties. Please help me. Thanks.
