Recovering from an ACL injury is a hard battle to fight, and it’s not just physical. Researchers at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center found that coming back from knee trauma requires retraining the brain to aid in physical therapy.

Absolutely true! Got both my knee open for ACL reconstruction, even an regar click on my knee still worrying me a lot, not mention running or playing football, for me, adios my sports 😢

[@pazaz]

Has this feeling changed since today? I would appreciate your reply, as someone who's having ACL reconstruction next week

@@pazazhow did it go I had mines the 14th of this month just a bit over 2 weeks ago I’m still in a lil discomfort nothing like the first week tho

[@pazaz]

@@user-tl7cy5ic3n I did too in the 14th. I used the hamstring graft, and meniscus fix. Of course nothing like the first week and even the first 3 days was soo painful. I reduced my swelling and my pain. After a week and a half I stop my pain killer. I do a lot of massage and physical therapy, I think maybe on next 2-3 week I feel like I would be able to walk. And actually Neymar also done this surgery week before us

@@user-tl7cy5ic3n how about you?

[@pazaz]

@@user-tl7cy5ic3n I forgot, my surgeon said I need to try keep my leg straight to not cause other problems, and strange thing that happened to me is part of my calve I don’t feel it. The surgeon said it will pass

God damn this make sense, didnt get knee surgery but my knees hurt occasionally which makes me ultra aware of my movement, which makes walking a task.

[@ajayjohal2703]

The brain is doing that for a reason. Be arsenal it doesn't want to go through the insane trauma and depression of acl surgery again Think of it as a blessing that you can still walk and run.

[@LordFlashheart.11]

Had 2 ACL ops on one knee, 7 MCL ops...by far the most difficult was the MCL

[@MukeshKumar-qx1fo]

Yes ..I agree. Going through the same ..pls help.

[@vasudev6960]

Our Native ACL has spatial awareness cells while the graft placed has none, after surgery Our Brain has to make up for that extra info by itself. Unfortunately learnt this when my ACL was gone. 😅

Just dont play sports then 😅😅😅

[@frankhedgeman2656]

That’s does make sense

[@damienhettiarachchi9469]

I had acl surgery in 2018. But rehabilitation had not done well. Still I feel pain in under that left knee in-side. I can’t do sports as previous. Can I have recovery actions for this post surgery situation? Please help

And you should. ACLs are precious and must be protected. Most people recklessly abandon their ACL’s because they don’t place value on them

[@kiyoshi9825]

We don't understand the value of things until they are gone...

For me I understand it pretty damn well. Some piece of sh*t just happen to run directly into my damn knee so it twist and boom acl tear. F him. I hated him so much I just wanna kill him. He ruined my career
