Knee bending after ACL surgery
I underwent an ACL reconstruction surgery 11days back. I have been doing the advised exercises from doctor. I am unable to bend my knee even a little bit also. Is it normal? When will I be able to bend my knee? And how much time does it take to gain my hamstring back, which has been used as graft in the surgery?
