Acl ruptured on jan 12 2018

2018-02-01 15:37:50
I met with an accident on jan 12, I got complete tear of ACL. I was told by the doctor to wait for a month to heal the ligaments by itself. I am scared of another surgery, as I already had a surgery for my broken bones of 2fingers of my right hand in the same accident. Please suggest is there a way to avoid surgery for Acl.

You might need a surgery for ACL reconstruction as you are young, and you may be involved in sports activities. If there are no signs of instability, then there is no need.
Next Steps
Visit Orthopaedic Surgeon for clinical evaluation.
Health Tips
To have a stable and reliable knee, a healthy and functional ACL is important.

Dear sir, take rest for a month.Then start physical exercises. Then if you have instability of the knee, then you need keyhole surgery to reconstruct the ACL. Regards.
