ACL allograft surgery report thread; Page 1 of 3 1 2 3 Last. Obviously full extension, full flexion – i achieve full flexion easier and easier these days (ie dont need as much stretching or exercising to get it). The reasons for this could be multiple ranging from the worst – tear of the graft, to the intermediate – the graft got lax either during the recovery or was not put in with the right tension, or the best outcome in this bad situation – that it will tense up a bit more while recovering, i was extremely disappointed and discouraged after hearing this given the hard work and time i have put into this surgery, the next step is to possibly get an MRI to get a better sense of how the recovery is going inside, but the doctor said that given the stage in the recovery the MRI might not yield conclusive results since the tissue inside is still healing, very, very disheartening news for me. let me know what you think – post a comment ! Basically slept with the brace on and full straight leg which kid of got uncomfortable after a while and got blisters on the back of my heel, Doing icing daily twice or three times using bag of ice as well as cyro-cuff ice machine, The cyro-cuff ice machine is basically an overhyped cooler with a tube stuck to it and a knee pouch made out of rubber with an empy inside where cool water resides and circulates. I really think that it is alot about getting back the full strength of the quad, No leg extensions btw – not recommended by doctor and all rehab protocols i read advise against it, At the end of week 9 i could finally go down a flight of stairs – although assisted (ie i need to hold the side bar to get some weight off), i still need to improve going up and down the stairs but gait is now fine; i only get a little limpy after walking around alot and when the knee starts getting tired, i must admit i have days like today when i am just sick and tired of this injury. • Also, every individual patient’s recovery is different, and may require more or less time than expected. have to do 10 min of stretching before heading out to work.

If you have injured your ACL and are preparing for surgery using an allograft, then you are in the right place. i can see myself starting doing that as well – when my ACL gives me no trouble its no longer #1, but when it acts up – bam! i constantly have to massage my hammstrings and they really bother me alot, i read online that after teh hamstring graft 70% of the patients have the grafted portion grow back in some shape or form, while for the other 30% the muscle never goes back, i dont know in which category i stand, but the back of the leg has really been bothering me.

Synonyms acl ante…. , i have met plenty of people who went back to the sport of their choice aggressively (after 8 months or more) and ended up re-tearing their graft. nothing i can do but exercise, not do sports, use comfrey, massage and fucking exercise some more, i have been doing morning stretches before heading out to work , nothing more in the past 2 weeks, and unfortunately i kinda of feel it, my knee kind of stopped bothering me but my hamstrings have kicked in really bothering me daily, what do i mean by that – a healthy muscle is one you dont “feel” is there. I am waiting to get the quads to a state i am comfortable with, other than that going down the stairs (especially steep ones) is not always a smooth action, so definitely there is some good amount of work to be done, i am still watching my nutrition, getting my vitamins and doing the above but the process for me has been quite slow in getting my strength back to a level i am comfortable with, my bad leg has been bothering me alot as of late, especially when walking – the pain is on the tibia side, where the graft is supposed to attach to the bone; also my knee itself hurts and pops, i decided to get a 3rd party independent opinion regarding my progression so i went to a different orthopedist, he took an X-ray of my knee and also performed the Lachman test, the x-ray came out well – he said the tunnels both on the femur and tibia side look good in terms of angle and alignment and i have a metal clip on the femur side which came up in the x-ray and an absorbable screw on the tibia side which did not show up in the x-ray, however when he performed the Lachman test on both knees he found the operated one to be lax compared to the good one.
