ACL RECONSTRUCTED

2016-02-29 18:01:57
How many weeks it will take to walk without support after ACL reconstruction and partial meniscus repair surgery on left leg. It's been 26 days and still cannot walk without support. I am using single elbow crutch to walk since 1 week and the flexion is 90 degrees on CPM machine. I still feel my leg is weak.

It usually taken about six weeks to walk without support after ACL recon. Judging by your status your rehab seems to be fine.
