ACL knee surgery
Hi I have had an ACL(Grade III) knee ligament tear surgery 2 years back in January 15. I recovered well and was even back to intensive cricket. However, a few days back, in a party, I felt a sudden jerk and felt little twitch in my knee. And today, I have a huge swelling and feel pain while walking. Also the inhibition of a possible rupture of the ligament is back! What should I do next? Is it possible that the graft has come off?

• Quadriceps Exercises- Lie straight, make a towel role and put it under the knee, press the keen against the role, hold it for 20 secs. Repeat 20 times twice a day. This will help relieve some pain. • Core Strengthening Exercise- Straight Leg Raised With Toes Turned Outward, repeat 10 times, twice a day. • Hams Stretching- lie straight, take the leg up, pull the feet towards yourself, with a elastic tube or normal belt. repeat 10 times, twice a day. • Sports Taping- stretch the tape from both ends and apply on the affected area • Contrast Fomentation (Hot and Cold).
