Arthroscopic Arthrolysis&ACL reconstruct
43 days before I've had a surgery to fix complete tear of my MCL,and partial tear of my LCL,Meniscus and MPFL.My ACL was left unrepaired.
Now I'm unable to bend my leg to even 30 degrees and my doctor had advised me to do Arthroscopic Arthrolysis and reconstruction of my ACL together. Is the following surgery usually done together?
If only Arthroscopic Arthrolysis is done now,How much days do i require to bend my knees to 90 degrees and move on with the ACL reconstruction?
