Failure of acl graft. Please help!

2017-08-26 17:22:03
Sir it's been 6 weeks of my ACL RECONSTRUCTION using hamstring autograft. I was on partial weight bearing but today something happened and I ran to see that. Though using walker but I was as furious as possible. I suspect my graft failure. Because swelling is increased immediately and my leg feel loose. How can I suspect graft rupture?

You need to immediately put on a brace. Apply ice. Instability can be checked after swelling reduces only..
