Knee stiffness and bending movements
I had ACL reconstruction surgery in December 2016, and advised for 1.5 months bed rest after surgery. After completing 1.5 months started phisiotherapy sessions but since last month completely stopped the session due to some work load but right now I am suffering from knee pain, knee stiffness and also my knee bending restricted. Is it possible to achieve full range same as before surgery.

Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment knee is applied warm water followed by the immediate application of the knee with ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation.
