You can climb stairs or go down once you attain knee bending approx 90 degrees, this should take you anywhere from 7-8 days post surgery depending on your pain tolerance and efforts .
Jogging and sports can be performed by 3 months post surgery.
Healing of grafts to the bone depends on the fixation device used. But this should take anywhere between 4-8 weeks.
You can start knee bending from next day of surgery.
