@@MrBrownii13 Yes I did. I got it all back. I did all my pt exercises religiously, not skipping a day or session and it all came back. In the first few months I had to do certain exercises/stretches 4-5 times a day for the flexion/extension.
@@iamolegsavka nice!! I do have a good physio who went through the same and who is playing soccer again. I am 29 years old and I just wanna walk around without thinking about my knee. I am way too young to walk around with a limp or some kind of constant pain. Lots of people feel pain walking stairs after surgery. I was so fucking active. Even during vacation my wife and I went on hikes. Just wanna do it again!. Right now I can do everything except sharp turns or lots of weight. And I wanna put full pressure on the knee after a few months. I just love weight training and I am afraid that I can only do 90’ degree squats.
@@MrBrownii13 Thank you🙏 And nicee you will be back in no time. Time flies by. Someone told me after the injury that it will fly by and you will look back at it feeling it was just a bad dream and you forget about it. Being 9 months post op now I feel like those words were very true. You got it man💪
@@MrBrownii13 I am the same way lol I can’t sit still for 2 seconds. I love being active 24/7. Was very tough for me first few months so I feel your pain lol but it went by quick and i just thought of little things as wins. I did my pt non stop and did little band exercises and pullups. Also, I went on many walks and when I could start lightly go to gym that was awesome. My limp fully went away in a few months too. It progressively felt better but still weird but I am at the point right now where I feel almost 100% natural and barely notice it.
I’m on day 12 post ACL surgery, just starting to bend my knee more & more. The first 8 days I didn’t really do too much physio just because I felt unmotivated & tired due to pain killers & felt a lil depressed that I can’t move my leg the way I want to. By day 10 I stopped feeling sorry for myself & starting to focus on my physio cuz that’s the only way your gonna get better! Wish me luck & for everyone else who may feel the same way, YOUR not alone !! We gotta keep pushing ourselves!!
Tore ACL and meniscus got fully repaired on both I’m back fully running and cutting feeling great. Take therapy seriously. It all gets better trust me. Good luck everybody!
I'm going on 3 weeks post op from a patella tendon rupture and I can echo the first few days after surgery are pretty rough. I was advised to start taking the pain meds the day of surgery after surgery and omg it helped so much. That pain is borderline unbearable if you dont get ahead of it. 3 weeks post op and doing some small exercises and I'm weight bearing its alot better..tons better. Anyone with knee Injuries like these just get through the first few days post op and it gets so much better. Stay positive
Dangg I feel you man, it’s rough! As a very active person it was tough for me too but what really helped was having good people around as family and friends! Also seeing the small progress was also great, knowing that things are only going to get better. Best of luck on tour recovery bro you got this💪
13 days post op I had ACL reconstruction with quad tendon part of meniscus cleaned up and femoral condyle micro drilling in my cartilage. I can’t weight bear for another 6 weeks but I can straighten my knee/leg completely out with some hypertension and I can bend my knee at 75 degrees The hard part is hopping around on 1 leg and not being able to drive bc it’s my right leg. You’re absolutely right the 1st week was painful but I am no longer taking my pain medication I only take the meloxicam and I take Tylenol if I am having any pain which is usually at night
I also tore my ACL and meniscus. I am not sure, if trimming the meniscus is the better option in the long run. Because I read that the more you have, the better. Which means that putting it back together and having a longer healing process could be better. But I believe the surgery will decide during the surgery and not before. So I can’t change it. And to be honest, I feel like you - having it trimmed means you can walk around on your own quicker and can start to work out sooner ( upper body at least). Btw. My surgery will be in one month. I am so afraid..
It will all be good bro you got this💪 And they originally said they needed to do surgery on my meniscus but will know more when they go in my knee. My meniscus healed up very well so thats why the stitching surgery wasn’t necessary and only the trim was required. It’s a long journey but a valuable one. Everything happens for a reason bro!
Better and better everyday!💪 Currently around 5 months post-op and recently started doing light agility/plyometrics in PT. Progression going very well💯
Heading for surgery in two weeks. Surgeon told me I would not need a brace and could start weight bearing, as tolerated, right away. Of course, if she needs to stitch up my meniscus this could all change.
I tore my patella tendon and severely sprained my meniscus . I got surgery tmrw , I’m an active skateboarder 😢 .. also a Kratom user so I’m afraid of detoxing while recovering from surgery ughh
Hey! I got my surgery done couple days ago. I am in a similar situation -> got my ACL reconstructed and meniscus looked just fine. Glad to see you are recovering well, hoping mine would be the same. Also, when did you start PT?
I had an acl surgery yesterday, march 13. They used an hamstring tendon to replace the ACL. They didn't put my knee in a brace, just bandages. I will have the bandages removed in two days , (or replaced?) I'm not sure. The doctor told me I can already put some weight on my knee though I try to mostly use the crutches. So far after 36 hours the pain is not a big deal but my knee still feels under anasthesia from the injection... I ruptured my Acl one year ago playing soccer.
You got this💪 I think at first I put like half weight and after around 2 weeks later I started putting full weight down. Everything happens for a reason and you will see the meaning behind this and positives soon. Good luck with recovery and let me know if you have any questions based on my experience so far!
@@rohullahtasang1703 Ohhh shoot. That would be a question for the doctor then not me lol. I still had a lot of pain but the pain killers made it very manageable for me. Nights were tough as they wore off. I just remember the toughest is the first 2 weeks. After that it gets better.
Yo brother. How is your graft now? I'm worried sick about being one of the unlucky ones that has life long knee pain after this. can you kneel for gardening and stuff and like that? I hope your graft is treating you well!
@@nemonemo5591 Hey! It is feeling really good. No knee pain at all on the regular. Just soreness at times and light clicking noise. Kneeling on soft surfaces no issues or pain at all but kneeling hard surfaces there is some pain not gonna lie and I try to avoid it.
Nice man! You got it bro. Will be back in no time! I am currently 8 months post op and in the later stages of physical therapy! Check out my latest video if you are interested in seeing where I am currently at. I think it'll be another month or two before I am fully good. ua-cam.com/video/ORijOaFZ-7g/v-deo.htmlsi=j3KXiV9cIKC9pUPN
Hello , when does the stabbing pain in the patellar go away please ? Like in how many days? Thanks for your video 👌(and also thanks for talking about this type of pain because in other videos nobody talks abt it )
You’re very welcome💪 From what I remember, the really strong stabbing pain went away after a few days and a the more subtle stabbing pain after about a week or two. After that it was just more of an odd sore feeling.
@@iamolegsavka Yeah thanks for your answer bro😄 My acl surgery is day afther tomorrow. I'll use my hamstring tendon. I'll Hope your knee will be 100% cure.
I have meniscus tear playing soccer I been doing a lot exercises I feel a lot better my orto Doctor told me need surgery but I’m still looking for second opinion trying to avoid surgery if it possible. Do you live in USA ? What state?
Hey Eric! I live in New York. So from what I have learned from my injury is that for the meniscus it really depends on where the tear occurred and how it heals. The meniscus has a very minimal blood supply but the outer layer of the meniscus gets the most rich amount of blood supply and therefore usually heals much better than if the tear is in the inside layer. My doctor had me wait 6 weeks before I get surgery for my swelling to go down, increase quad strength, and to see how the meniscus reacts. They also told me I would most likely need surgery on it but mine healed very well and ended up not needing surgery but a meniscectomy which is where they trim a piece off and obviously the ACL surgery. If I were you I would talk to your doctor and maybe get another MRI to see how it is. It would suck getting surgery but it could also be the best to be healthy and strong for your future as well. I would look into Arda Gulers injury from Real Madrid if I were you too. He recently had a meniscus injury and it has been interesting keeping track. Real has been having him do natural healing methods to see how it responds and then only surgery if necessary. Hope this helps man. Good luck and keep grinding. Everything will turn out just fine💪
Also, if the meniscus is not properly healed, it could cause serious damage in the future such as arthritis. I would talk to your doctor again or try to talk to a sports medicine doctor as they are extremally knowledgeable in this field. The normal doctors didn't even know I had an acl tear and misdiagnosed me the first few weeks😂 Once I got sent to a specific sports medicine doctor, he cleared things up wayyyy more and it was extremely helpful and things made more sense.
@@gavinmcginn4460 ohhh okay nice and best of luck in recovery💪 I think i started slowly walking after about 2 weeks but with the brace on. Better to ask doctor/pt but as long as you didn’t have surgery on meniscus I think that’s fine.
Hey bro, got my ACL reconstruction surgery 10 days ago,,the wounds are healing better now but I feel that my shin bone down to my ankle are totally numb,,it is swelling also,just ask for your opinion,,was that normal??did you experienced the same bro??
Hey bro! I know it is different for everyone. I definitely had a lot of numbness and swelling around my knee but not all the way down to my ankle. I’m sure its fine and just your bodies way of healing but I would ask your doctor/physical therapist if I were you. You go it bro best of luck in recovery process💪
@@berniearenburg5075 I was actually doing a remote internship at the time so it kind of worked out for me to only take a few days off and then get back to working remote.
@@berniearenburg5075 depends what kind of work you do. If it’s a sitting job probably good with only taking a week or two off. If it’s a job that requires more physical work probably a lot more depending what kind of physical work. Good to talk to doctor/physical therapists about that and they should provide paperwork for work.
I slightly tore my ACL on October 13th. It's a 2nd degree tear so is it necessary to get surgery? I do want to get back to playing sports as hobbies and hitting the gym regularly, any advices??
Hey bro! My biggest advice would be to get an MRI and advice from a specialized sports medicine knee doctor. They will know best. From what I have heard though, as long as it is not a full tear on the ACL, it is possible for it to heal naturally in a few months. Mine for example was a full tear so surgery was needed however my MCL was a partial tear and did not need surgery. Just do whatever is necessary for you to get back to sports at 100%! Whether that means surgery or not, it will be worth it in the long term. Hope this helps bro, you will be alright💪Good luck with recovery and keep grinding. Lmk if you have any other questions!
Look for an orthopaedic surgeon who can perform “ACL primary repair” instead of the usual ACLR using a graft. Ive had both procedures on both of my knees. 6 years ago I underwent an ACLR and some sort of meniscectomy. I injured my right ACL last year and MRI showed a high grade tear on my right ACL. I did my research since ive had my left knee reconstructed before and found out about the new and less invasive procedure. Ive done the ACL primary repair on my right knee on the 15th of Febuary and 2 days later I was already off crutches 🩼 with full weight bearing (with a slight limp of course). But my God, what a difference compared to my left knee lol 😂. If you decide to not get a surgery with your injured ACL bear in mind that its going to be a ticking time bomb 💣 (granted that you’re still have an active lifestyle). Sooner or later, you’re knee will start to deteriorate inside and will eventually tear it completely. Trust me, lol ive waited yearsssss to get my left knee ACLR procedure done, doctor said that he pretty much took most of my meniscus off coz it was too damaged to even try to repair.
Our human bodies' joints esp the knees are such a disaster, in terms of vulnerability, i wonder why people go into sports or other more extreme activities? Don't do it,it's not worth the risk,with medicine, that's also pretty impotent and overrated you are looking for a very good chance of a life of suffering. Athletes are like trauma collectors, so are the fitness 'freaks' and fans of more active and extreme outdoor activities. It's almost certain you'll have a serious injury which no doctor will fix.I have frequent arguments with my sister over her decision to enroll my nephew(14 yo) into tennis, which doesn't have a reputation of a dangerous sport, but he already had PT because of a shoulder problem. Still she doesn't want to listen. I would advise young or old ,stay away from this stuff,the human body is weaker than you think,and so is traumatology and medicine in general. Better stay at home,not to drink or smoke is enough for a good life.👍
The comeback will be absolutely extraordinary✨
