Acl reconstruction

2017-09-23 09:32:43
It has been now 6 months post op my knee is feeling pretty good than before! But i feel it is still a bit instable! I talked to my surgeon he said its fine. Is it normal to feel a bit instable? He didn't adviced yet to start jogging nd running too. And does smoking weed twice a week or once a week will affect healing of my acl graft after 6 months or the outcomes of acl surgery will be affected
