ACLs' using Hamstring graft
I have had ACL reconstruction in 2016 with Hamstring graft. I tore my ACL again of the same knee and and I am going for a revision surgery, using hamstring from the other knee. Since hamstrings of both my knees would have been used as a graft, does that imply chances of early arthritis? Or any other Hamstring related issue? Is there any way to avoid that?
