Acl surgery
Sir I had an accident on Feb 3 and diagnosed with full volume ACL tear,Bony contusion on femoral side ,Lateral Meniscus vertical tear, and a grade one MCL sprain.Then I underwent acl Reconstruction surgery on Feb 28 from a hamstring graft and partial meniscectomy.Then I was braced for another 2 weeks with full weight bearing with a walker and stitches were opened at the end of 2 weeks and knee bending of 25-30 degree in first day ie 2 weeks. Then I after 50 days I am stuck at 92 degree bending and 3 degree extension loss doing PT everyday but still walking with limp and pain in the posterior knee. My PT says its ok and will take another couple months to attain full flexion and another 2 weeks to walk without limp, is it ok. Or should I go for MUA.How can I know if any scar tissue built up inside?
