I am three days post-op ACL. I had a full rupture, a bucket handle medial meniscus tear, a sprain to my MCL and bone contusions. Unfortunately I also have some arthritis and my injury was severe I had loose cartilage floating around they also removed. My surgeon fixed the ACL with an allograft, and cleaned up some of the arthritis I think with an OAT procedure and repaired the meniscus. I started PT 1 day after surgery, just quad sets, heel slides and ankle pumps. I am non weight bearing for 6 weeks. This is absolutely one of the hardest injuries to endure physically and mentally. My heart goes to everyone!
Editing to say I am 38, and my surgeon told me he generally only does autografts if the person he is operating on is a major athlete or plays a sport. For someone like myself who isn’t and wasn’t an athlete, I just had a bad slip and fall for all of this, he said getting back to life an allograft is the better option.
Never thought I’d know so much about everything ACL before subscribing. Awesome video
Great video. Thank you!
Awesome video.
Thanks!
Thank you both!
Learned a lot today.
Happy to help! 🙏
Victoria, thank you for the great Interview with Kero ! I just discovered your channel !
I am a Chiropractor, athlete and Concussion nerd in the Rehabilitation field. I just sustained the "unhappy triad" while skiing.😰
I've already started my Pre- Hab.
Just wanted to say this video was very helpful and put some fears to rest!
Kero, you are an extremely knowledgeable PT. I work with a lot of PTs and rehab professionals. I thoroughly enjoyed your interview and can see you are an expert, and a compassionate true leader in your field. Keep up the good work !
Thabk you 🙏
So glad you found this helpful! Wishing you the best of luck in your recovery 🙏🙏
I tore my ACL 2 weeks ago and found this video informative!
happy to know that :)
I’m about to be 7 weeks post op…. I want it to be 7 months… 9 months already. This process is so long & frustrating at times. I’m glad i have a great PT team. I’m hoping i met the guidelines soon for i can return to work. Thank you both for the information!
You got this!
I tore my Acl a week ago and I am so happy I found you, this is super helpful. I am already going out of my mind thinking about the loooong recovery time. How soon should I start my pre-hab ?
I’d suggest making an appt with a PT! They will best be able to guide you with pre-hab. Wishing you a smooth recovery!
Im on my month 4
A professional bball player
Had a quadriceps tendon graft
Can do all the stuff i was able to do
But sometimes it comes off with swelling and pain and cracking
This video was sooooo helpful
Thank you❤️
Keep it up :)
I tore my ACL, PCL, and LCL. I’m a at higher risk or early arthritis because I have tore so much? I am currently 16 weeks post op
So leading up to your surgery did you rest your knee more or try to build up quad strength? I’m concerned to do more damage by strengthening it. So is staying off it till surgery the way to go? Or what should I do and avoid doing.
I did lots of strengthening! Your doc should advise :) mine wanted me to get my quad as strong as possible beforehand
@@VictoriaDorsano but was your quad too strong and did that contribute to your patellar fracture?
@peacelovebutterbeer it’s hard to say exactly what was the direct cause. Most likely many factors contributed to the fracture. But that was probably the least significant. It was more so about the position and loading of my knee in that particular angle at that time in recovery that did the damage
I have a question I’m currently 8 weeks out Acl surgery however I start pt week late so I’m currently 7 weeks whit pt and I only have 100 knee flxtion and 110 whit a band is this considered bad I know it’s slow progress but I’m scared if I will need a MUA I could push my self I believe to maybe 120ish however can’t hold it there
Your PT will be better able to address this concern with you. Sometimes it just takes a little longer for some folks :)
How soon would you start a regime like knees over toes post Op?
Best to check with your PT :)

I love his standard package lol
