Calf muscle after ACL

2016-11-11 05:49:33
I have been operated on 31oct for ACL reconstruction and I'm writing on 11nov. The reconstructed part is fine, i think there is no pain there.. But when i hang my leg, trying to walk, my calf muscle hurts so much that i literally cry. Is it normal after the surgery? What to do when it pains is the main question, but if its not normal after the surgery, then what should i do?
