  4. ACL reconstruction rehab. Excercises?

ACL reconstruction rehab

2019-01-16 16:19:08
I underwent an ACL reconstruction on December 28. Currently I'm doing my physiotherapy and exercises. The knee is slightly swollen and I can't keep it straight or  bend more than 120 degrees. Also there are muscle cramps and pains. Is this normal? Should I push for more excercises?
