In this video I discuss an important topic of anterior (front) knee pain following ACL surgery. It's important to manage this early so this doesn't become a lingering issue.
I’m about 18 months or so after acl and meniscus and still get pain it’s quite worrying im hoping it’s mostly due to my weight I’m around 6.0ft and 17.11st
I noticed this pain, 3 months post surgery. My recovery was going on track since then, was doing knee curls, squats, lunges, squat hold etc without pain. After this episode, all these exercises have been hampered. My physio mentioned that probably other muscles of the leg aren’t strong enough and hence there is pain on tendons during loading, the physio mentioned not to stress the tendon n focus on strengthening other muscles. I dont see any improvement yet. Is it advisable to use this exercise or do we just rest it ? G
How do you deal with pain while kneeling I am 12 months and cleared for sports. I have a torn meniscus the first surgeon missed. The surgeon didn't tell me that pettela graft can cause pain while kneeling and am very angery to the point I left the office. I am getting my meniscus dealt with by a doctor I trust more and wasn't happy with the other surgeon. What can I do to deal with kneeling I am a welder and have to kneel a lot I just can't do it no more I just sit now. The miniscus adds to it so I don't know exactly what just the pettela feels like by itself.
@@jayjay80850 Tore my meniscus in my left knee. I got a cortisone shot in the right for the miniscus. I wanna do the same for the left so I can finish my football season. I asked about the pettela and he says there is nothing he really can do for it besides stem cells which are really expensive even if they harvested from your own body.
I am 6 months out and my pain isn't too severe, but my pt specialist told me that it's not really permanent. But you'll want to mobilize the scar tissue a lot as well as crawling doing fire hydrants with a band on your knees on a yoga mat. You have to target the scar tissue because that's what's causing the pain the more you fight the scar tissue the less pain you'll feel. There's certainly cases where it's permanent but you are young, healthy, permanent pain only affects 3% of people who get a pattelsr graft.
i’m a little over 5 months in since surgery and i’m experiencing the same issue. has it gotten better for you? was there anything you did that helped/fixed it?
Spot on as always Doc!!
Spot on.... this technique works to reduce the tendon pain
thanks
I got a quad tendon graft and my quad incision hurts so bad after a workout. I’m 8 months post op.
My daughter is experiencing screw pain at site of incision. It comes and goes. Can she fix it by taking a couple of weeks resting knee?

@Bronson Leach how are you doing now bro?

I am in 3 weeks post operation. Facing the same pain in the front knee when trying to straighten 180°. Will the pain go away with time?
How is pain now, i am suffering from same problem
6 months post opp and still have patellar tendon pain
Same bro 😓
i’m a little over 5 months in since surgery and i’m experiencing the same issue. has it gotten better for you? was there anything you did that helped/fixed it?
im on month 8 post opp, and i still have this pretty bad
Me too, month 10
Same
year and 3 months and still have it
9 months and still having this bad pain
me too. I am 11 months in, still dealing with pain and tightness.
I got the patellar bone graft so I think my pain might be from that or from loading my knee often from rehab
