I had a hair line fracture of Tibia bone

2022-01-28 08:03:05
I got a hair line fracture of Tibia and was put in a full leg cast for 1 month. The fracture has healed according to the doctor. It's been 1 month since plaster has been removed but still I am not able to neither run nor jog. I am continuously going for physiotherapy also. ROM is at 110. I feel my knee very unstable when I try to jog. My physiotherapist says it's due to Quads weakness. But I think it's ACL tear because all my symptoms match ACL tear symptoms. Can this be an ACL Tear ? given that  my knee twisted very badly when this fracture happened. Thanks Sir/Mam
