Hi .. am getting knee pain and crack sound when i bend knee,take a steps,when dancing and other excerises. Can i go a head with the above excerises of our even if i have this pain?
I also hear this cracking sound and feel discomfort while walking. My doctor told me to do some these mentioned exercises for six months. It has been a month and I'm starting to feel better. My suggestion is you go see a doctor first because no one can give a solution without examining the patient.
Hi,yeah i have already consulted the doctor he suggested some kind of same execrice as the above one. My question is will it recover completely if u do this only by exercise? Are do we need any medication? Since mine is sever when i stand more time n walk much i get sever pain on hole leg.
@@vidyaranib8517 As I am undergoing this therapy I can't tell you from own experience. But a footballer from my university had this this ACL injury and sincerely did the therapies 20 a set; four five times a day for six months and then continued for a year! He started playing, jumping etc as if he never had any problem. So, yeah I hope you'll recover fully if you take this seriously.
Hello mam..... I m a cricketer nd while bowling my right leg got twisted.... Doctor recommended me MRI.... Nd my MRI reports conclude that my ACL is ill defined, bulked no tear in meniscus I feel pain sometimes but i can walk easily It hurts when i jump nd land on right leg Pls pls pls reply mam how can i recover
I've got a complete ACL tear going the non surgery route so far my only issues are with squatting and it doesn't seem to be getting better unfortunately. Pain just does not want to go away. 5 months post injury
Hey Dr. Jo, I started doing these exercises as soon as I had my appointment for surgery ( ACL reconstruction ) they were very helpful. I’m now 8 days after surgery and feeling no pain. Thank you so much!!
Just tore mine a few days ago. I go on vacation in a few weeks and I have been doing this before using the option of surgery and I can somewhat see a lot of progress. Just today I was able to get my leg almost straight because of this. Thank you, Doctor Jo.
@@sherainepayne9172 it’s much better! I ended up scheduling the surgery after my vacation but like two days before my surgery, my knee was almost completely straight again and fine! Every once in awhile, I get nerve pain in my knee and I’ll get a sudden pain that away eventually if I run up some stairs. But it’s a lot better!
Thanks to all those doctors who are spreading enlightenment about this ACL or meniscus knee injuries and the present demonstration of the knee exercises really did work well. Thanks again.
Thank you so much .. exactly one month ago I had injury. My ACL, PCL,MCL completely torn and fracture tibia near my knee cap.. it all happened cause my adult son who has autism, he and his brother both fell down on my knee during one of his tantrum episode. 2 adults more than 300 lb fell down on my knee and I heard 3 snap sound..ouch 😢 waiting for my knee surgery.. anyway I will follow these exercises. Thank you again.😊 I wish everyone goodluck..stay safe..
I found this video too late but I wanted to comment and say that doing these exercises and focusing on mobility made post-surgery SO MUCH EASIER!! Especially being able to fully straighten my leg. PT would’ve been so much more painful if I wasn’t able to fully extend my leg to 0 degree pre-surgery. So anyone who is searching, these exercises are it!! If anything I would add some calf raises and hip strengthening. Thank you for putting this info on the internet!! 😊
Thank you so much, I've injured my kneecap over a year and a half ago, getting close to two years. The physio therapist that I had before was amazing, she gave me some of these exact excerises. I was pushed too hard by everyone around me, however, so I've been stuck with a knee that is very difficult to work with. It's hard to bend, buckles a lot randomly when I walk, etc. The stress of school plus the stress of constantly being reminded that I can't do the things I loved anymore (likr badminton) because I can't run or anything gets to me so bad, that I stopped doing excersises and lost motivation to do them. But I'm starting to slowly work on bettering myself and reminding those around me that sometimes being too pushy makes things worse rather than better, and that even if my progress is slow, it's still progress. ;)
I just got my ACL reconstructed last week and this video was an absolute game changer on regaining mobility prior to surgery. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, this made an impact on my health and optimism for recovery.
Already I am ACL tear operation. After IMPRESSION. 1. Post operative status shows- ACL tear. 2. Anterior horn of lateral and posterior horn of medial meniscal injury. 3. Mild joint effusion.
trying not to be a wimp but this is actually making me cry. super helpful. torn my acl recently and the pain and has been out of this world. i was able to do a couple of these and it felt great to get through them.
Thanks Dr. Jo! I’m in physical therapy now for a partial/near full ACL tear. I’ve added these exercises to my plan. I have so much anxiety about possibly needing surgery if I don’t fully heal. Do people ever walk / run / do physical activity normal again with just physical therapy? Thanks for this awesome video and information. ❤️
Thanks for responding! Would you recommend doing the surgery to avoid other risks? (I know that’s hard to answer without evaluating me, but any advice on what to do would help). Thanks again!
If you are able, I would always try a month or two of physical therapy first, and then re-assess where you are at. Even if you end up needing surgery, physical therapy can help get you as strong and flexible as possible to help make your recovery much easier (so it's not a waste of time as some might think). Your physical therapist should be able to help you with figuring out what is best.
I was pessimistic at first, since yesterday was the first time i did these exercises and this morning i woke up with a stiff knee, but after doing the exercises again, this evening, I can really see quite an improvement. Thank you for the informative video🤗
Hi Dr Jo, I watch your UA-cam videos a lot ,I think you are the best to follow regarding strengthening exercises! What struck me the most was the exercises you showed in this video is like a low-impact pilates mat exercises “which I think is the bees knees ,Sorry no pun intended “! 😁Thank you so much for doing your terrific,helpful videos! 😊💕 x
I really love your video they’ve been helping me so much I just found out I hve torn ligament so I did your exercises omg they help me out a lot thank you 🙏
WOW I cant believe my doctors have not addressed any of this to me. I go in for surgery on the 19th. I limped in their office four different times, you think they would have asked if I was doing any kind of rehab. Toward the end of my last visit when we scheduled my surgery, I asked about any kind of work outs. He said biking is ok, walking around is ok, and that was it. They should have realized I have been babying my knee, based on my limping into the office each visit, due to lack of knowledge and recent shock, and suggested I start doing all these rehab workouts. Thank you Doctor Jo, not only did you address all my pains, but you have given me the confidence I need to start rehab now. I am doing these things today and looking forward to a strong knee, for my surgery 😀
Hey Doctor Thanks a lot, you not only demonstrated then all fairly well, these all exercises are really helpful in healing my ACL injury. Thanks a Lot.
I just had my first day working on landscaping, and my knee gave way, and I got a tone of pain, I carried on working. Bad idea, still got the pain now for 2 days, should I go doctors?
Thank you. I find your videos are very helpful. I have torn my acl 3 weeks ago, my doctor want me to do therapy for 6 weeks before I can get surgery. Oh it’s hurts so bad when I try to straight my leg. We surely take things for granted...
Hi Dr Jo, thanks for a useful physio and your background explanations of the muscle physiology. It all helps to do the right thing by my knee :-). 1.5 weeks ago, when skiing, I torn my right ACL and partially the posterior horn of my right medial meniscus. First week, no walking, pain, swelling, now I walk almost normally, can do all exercises, but still cannot put full load on the injured leg. I may have had partial tear in both ligaments since my childhood (skiing :-). Had MRI, doc said, no operation, as I am 50. Maybe later, if it bothers me. My question is: will the scar tissue replace the ACL and how strong will it be approx? Can blood flow, massage and the physio exercises increase chances of ACL re-growth / meniscus re-join? Also, when bending, the knee goes through a dull "click" - a bit painful, at approx 75% of the full bend. Will these clicks disappear too?
You're welcome. Scar tissue does help strengthen the ACL because the ACL itself (a ligament) can not heal. But that doesn't necessarily mean you need surgery. Yes, all the above you mentioned should help. I would really recommend going to see a physio in person though for the best treatment. Unfortunately, I don't know the other answers since I can't evaluate you.
Thanks docjo it's really helpful and worked. Thanks for taking pain for humanity people like you serving the profession are the one who makes us feel prod of our docs and physios. Keep up the good job Dr Abhinav advocate India Jaipur
Hello everyone! I have a question. It's been 21 months since I had a meniscus crack coupled with "tension on the ACL". Granted, I got 2 different doctors' opinion, but both relied on the fact that my ACL was damaged. No sign of tear though. Only recovery that I did was sit in a cast bed ridden for a month, after I started exercising more and even playing football again (with an elastic knee brace and only playing in goal, so limited running around). I even started going to the gym and working my legs quite a lot, benching a max of 140kg with no pain (I have skinny legs to begin with so that's a great number for me). Ever since quarantine started in March and I stopped going to the gym, I started experiencing great pain in my ACL. I felt (and sometimes still feel) very insecure about the injured knee when walking (like it's about to collapse at any point). I took some recommended pills and the pain started fading away after, but every time I run or walk for extended periods of time, I get a lot of pain there. I cannot currently visit a doctor for a better opinion. Do these exercises work for my rehab process? Thank you everyone, sorry for the long message. Good luck to everybody with the rehabilitation!
Hi Doc, I had ACL surgery nearly two years ago and I am still having knee pain in a regular basis. I am no longer an athlete, but I still enjoy physical activity and weight training on a regular basis. Any advice on how to reduce or eliminate this pain?? Thank you!
Yeah me too.. Its been a year of my surgery. But still there is pain and i feel very unstable. Also i can not stand for a couple of minutes too. How to overcome this pain?
Hey dr. Jo thanks to you so i just fell my pain has gone by doing the exercises that you suggested as i have already dislocated my right knee bone in my 12th grade again after a year while practicing martial arts in my college i fell down and the doctor said that it had happened in the same place where i have dislocated my right knee it is ACL ligament tear i was worried coz the next month i was to perform in my college but due to my knee i was not able to but i just did the starting part because i started this exercise after 1 week of my injury so it helped me to start my martial arts again i am so happy 😁 thank you so much 💖
Hello mess 40days before ACL and meansous surgery daily small pain please exercises this video is so benefit my knee pain decrease thankyou very much ❤
@Marshmello: Yes i had surgery (ligamys surgery), maybe thats not available for you its really a new way., I should do surgery if i were you, the hamstring graft is your best option I guess! With me its going really well, its a tough route back, but you have to WORK HARD and keep going, now after 8 months (after surgery) Im feeling great, my knee feels great, so its really patience.. Im a soccer player (football) but im not yet playing fysical contact, but my sprinting and power are great now and I feel like I can play.. Note: WHAT A DIFFERNCE FROM 6 to 8 MONTHS so dont get too frustrated, the mental part is tough man.. Good luck buddies
MarshMello F.C no man it doesn't . U will only fill pain for 10days or so and after that u won't fill pain but yea u gotta take care of that Leg for Few months
I've injured my right knee. Not sure what I did. Knee locks up and snaps continuously. Will see an orthopedic doctor but thinking maybe meniscus or acl tear. Pain is only during weight bearing. Doing these exercises to strengthen. Wear a brace with support side bars. Helps a little still locks up ( like popping knuckles).
Hi, thank you for the video. My grandma is 70 years old and has got a torn ligament in her right knee which causes her extreme pain. What would the cure to this pain? How could this pain be relieved?
Had a knee injury early March and I’m pretty sure I tore something and my knee is still a bit swollen there time where I put too much weight on it and it pops out of place and feels so uncomfortable, I never went to the doctors due to this covid 19 but hope with these stretches and riding my bike daily it can heal up bc I miss doing my daily activities and this can be a big problem for me. Thank you Doc I’ll be on it
I'm able to walk, i'm able to fold my legs but when i try to run my knee gets twisted. If i started exercising from today then in how many day it'll take me to get recover?? Kindly reply please
I'm having the same problem , I did the mri and doc told me it's partial acl tear, also he said it's possible to strengthen your quads really good , especially your vastus muscles which are holding the knee in place.
Hi Jo, I tore my acl 6 months ago and was told I wont need surgery and should strengthen the muscles.. However after doing recommended exercises and wall sits my knee hurts and feels sore when moving, bending. Is this normal when doing strengthening exercises? Do people do fine without or Would you recommend an operation generally?
thank you so much, i recently had a injury because of soccer and i thought my knee didnt have a future but tbh with this video i see a lot of potential...!
Thank you! I couldn't get time with a physiotherapist this week and I am going back home on Monday. This helps until I come home and get to see a proper physiotherapist. Great video!
I injured my knee only today. I've just completed the excercises and rubbed lavender oil onto knee.This has greatly alleviated what was excruciating pain. Thank you.
can acl tear can be cured without surgery? i have torn my ligament of right knee. and its been about 3 yrs. actually i still play football but sometimes due to disbalance it again starts paining and dislocating. cant it be ok without surgery? ans me plz
@@AskDoctorJo I had ACL tear on right knee six months before and I hadn't any ACL surgery , it paining still ,can i cure it hereafter by doing these exercises and strengthening my legs
I've been back playing football/soccer for about 6 months after I finished with my rehabilitation of my acl, just a few days ago I have been having the same problem with it, it happened during my last match
I have ACL Tear injury😞I thought it’s just a minor injury that will heal by itself but it’s not. But unfortunately I don’t have enough money to endergo surgery .☹️😭
JohnSheen Paceno I’m in the same boat it’s been about a year now. You can definitely do stuff without an acl. I would just take life as you go and not get caught up with the knee injury. Trust me if I could have one thing it would be my knee back. I’m very active and just learned the harsh truth that I can’t play sports to my full potential anymore and it sucks. I even picked up skateboarding to try something new and that bombed cause I blew my knee again. Don’t let your knee get in the way of your success it’s just something that is very common and sucks when you can’t repair it cause you feel worthless. Trust me man you aren’t alone and we’re all here for each other dog. Stay strong brother, prove people wrong my friend.✊
My best advice is to work as much as you can to get the money and get the surgery you cannot do much things when you have an ACL year from that point things will go down if you try to exercise and keep on running. I know not having the money must be hard but getting back your knee is probably worth it. I had an ACL tear during August.. had my surgery on September and ever since then I has that mindset to over come your challenges and trust me you will have challenges for your rehab. Good luck and be careful.
hi I have got knee injury when I was playing football it was two month and have ago so I met Adoctor last week and sad U need MRI ....After MRI .we meet Again and He said U need To do one month on Phiso therpia so now How kind of Exercise I Can do???As well my problem is Acl tears is broken in the middle Thanks Am waiting For Ur Answer
Without getting to evaluate you, I really don't know what would be best. I would recommend going to see a physio therapist in person, so they can do an evaluation, and give you the best exercises for your needs. Good luck.
AskDoctorJo my injured leg is thinner because i kept wearing knee caps while walking. Will my both legs be of equal size again by doing these exercises???
Hello Dr Thanks for the time you spent to make this helpful video . I had ACL injury a year ago but unfortunately I couldn't complete the physiotherapy and after that i almost didn't do any exercise.Now after 1 year i noticed that my leg which got injured shrink and i really scare to do any type of sport cause i scare i tore up my ACL again but I really do miss playing football. I wanna know is there any hope i can fix my knee once again ? Thanks
Hello mam my ACL tear and Medical minuscules surjury complete 2 & half year now iam fell completely normal but I can't Run fast and not Bend my leg properly please tell me the Home excersize for this ...
hi Dr.Jo 😃 I've recently torn my ACL and i havent been able to work... I got to see the orthopedist and he told me I probably didn't need a surgery seeing its only a partial tear (which I'm super happy about) but he also told me I couldn't see a physiotherapist at the hospital cuz the list is too long so he told me to go see one at a private clinic ... which I cannot afford .. I then started looking online for exercise and help with this... I was very unsuccessful until I found your video. you are very strait to the point and show exactly what to do 😃 I'm now gunna follow your exercise and I'm sure when I go back to see my orthopedist in a month he'll be really happy with my progress! i know its not much but I "bought " you a 5$ pair of socks Lolll hope they keep your toes warm 😂 and please keep making these awesome videos.. I'm sure more people like me need you 😄😄 thanks so much 😄😄
Thank you!! I hope they help you heal. Also, if you have access to a pool, exercising in the water (not swimming) can be very beneficial too. I have some aquatic therapy videos if you want to check them out: ua-cam.com/play/PLPS8D21t0eO-X68fTNKk7UEkegxDqzQ3U.html Good luck!
Very good. What would you advise for people who can't afford surgery & they have maybe more than one torn ligament, degraded Cartilage, &aybe even a ruptured Tendon ?
Left knee Acl tear and meniscus new repair surgery done as on 23rd August. Stitches removed as on 13th September. I am following your stretches. Tunnel drilled in tibia using direction guide and fro m the ant-medical surface of tibia exiting at the foot-print of the tibia attachment of the original ACL. Petroneus longus graft harvested using a tendon stripper through a 3 cms long lateral incision on the lower third of the leg. Post 23 days still there is numness between knee and feet
I am recently diagnosed with complete tear of ACL..i am suffering from this from the last 4 years and decently found the reason.so is it possible to recover from it without surgery?
Hello Doctor, I have pain in my right knee and swelling. I visited doctor . He suggested to do reports and MRI. MRI results - Ligament sprain with partial thickness tear about 30% near the femoral attachment. Oblique tear is seen in the posterior horn of. the medial meniscus extending into the inferior articular surface with adjacent grade 2 injury. Doctor has suggested for surgery . I have started doing this excercise from last 10 days. Should I do this exercise or not ? Should I go for surgery or not ? Please suggest.
Hi dr Jo I was diagnosed for a partial all tear on my left knee over two months ago - I am 73 Apart from the exercises you demonstrate in this video I would like a recommendation for suitable exercises to tone down my thigh area from the knee to groin - I desperately need to reduce that area Thank you
Do you have access to a pool? Aquatic therapy (not swimming, but exercising in the pool) might be very beneficial for you. Have you been to physical therapy for it?
Hi Dr. jo, I'm suffering from partial ACL tear injury past 2 years. i took medicines and that helped me only for the time i used them. now its paining again! will these exercises help me to heal now? please answer me.

Recently I came to know that my both legs are suffering from ACL Partial tear. Should I go for an Arthroscopy or not..? I m sure I m not going for an open surger. I am an athlete and I am 26 yrs old. Looking forward for your kind guidance. Thank you
Sometimes they get turned on randomly. You can easily turn them off by clicking the "CC" button at the bottom of the video. If you want to leave them on, you can drag them to another area on the screen, or you can make them transparent. You can even automatically translate them into many different languages! I show how to do all this and more here: ua-cam.com/video/VatNBZh66Po/v-deo.html
Hey thanks for the video... I recently tore my ACL, MCL and Meniscus... I have been advised not to have the surgery right away because the knee is still stiff and painful. I have to do 2 weeks of Physiotherapy, plenty of ice packs and pain killers before the surgery can be done. In the meantime i am struggling with sleeping and moving around and was wondering if you could do a video or advise on the following as well: 1. The best sleep positions pre operatively and post operatively. 2. The best ways to move around safely pre operatively and post operatively.
I can add that to my list of videos to make. In the meantime, this might help with general sleeping positions: www.askdoctorjo.com/proper-sleeping-position It's really about what's comfortable for you. Good luck.
Thanks a lot Dr. Jo for this video. How long the leg gonna be ready for surgery say after 2 weeks sessions is good enough and what will be the benefit after the surgery? Best Regards, Ad
You’re welcome. There are different protocols after your surgery depending on what procedure is done. So you really need to go see a physical therapist in person for treatment after a surgery.

@@AskDoctorJo hi Dr I have ACL injury in knee so want to consultant the best deit to rehabilitate this please help and answer 🙏
This was great information, feels nice after my acl tear.
I was pessimistic at first, since yesterday was the first time i did these exercises and this morning i woke up with a stiff knee, but after doing the exercises again, this evening, I can really see quite an improvement.
Thank you for the informative video🤗
You're welcome.
Thank you so much Doc. All these exercise sessions helped me to recover from my pain
You're welcome. Glad they helped.
Hi Dr Jo, I watch your UA-cam videos a lot ,I think you are the best to follow regarding strengthening exercises! What struck me the most was the exercises you showed in this video is like a low-impact pilates mat exercises “which I think is the bees knees ,Sorry no pun intended “! 😁Thank you so much for doing your terrific,helpful videos! 😊💕 x

I really love your video they’ve been helping me so much I just found out I hve torn ligament so I did your exercises omg they help me out a lot thank you 🙏
Thanks, and you're welcome.
Are these exercises applicable for those with partial tear that don't require any surgery?
I think so. I only have a sprain and I have been doing these too
Co how are you feel now?
@@ico5136 can you please reply me ? does sprain heal itself 。 ? I am so worried that I need surgeries
@@ico5136 are you all good. Back to normal now? can you run / jump etc?
@@gurihabib5900 thank you very much. Hope you get back to normal soon
WOW I cant believe my doctors have not addressed any of this to me. I go in for surgery on the 19th. I limped in their office four different times, you think they would have asked if I was doing any kind of rehab. Toward the end of my last visit when we scheduled my surgery, I asked about any kind of work outs. He said biking is ok, walking around is ok, and that was it.
They should have realized I have been babying my knee, based on my limping into the office each visit, due to lack of knowledge and recent shock, and suggested I start doing all these rehab workouts. Thank you Doctor Jo, not only did you address all my pains, but you have given me the confidence I need to start rehab now. I am doing these things today and looking forward to a strong knee, for my surgery
😀
You're welcome. Prehab is so important. Wish more surgeons would talk with patients about it. Good luck with your surgery!
Hey Doctor
Thanks a lot, you not only demonstrated then all fairly well, these all exercises are really helpful in healing my ACL injury.
Thanks a Lot.
You're welcome.
Excellent! I'm healed! Thank you!
You're welcome!
Have you got healed from an complete ACL tear?
How what was ur sprain
My knee...this really helped in the healing process!
I just had my first day working on landscaping, and my knee gave way, and I got a tone of pain, I carried on working. Bad idea, still got the pain now for 2 days, should I go doctors?
Definitely. Good luck.
Thank you. I find your videos are very helpful. I have torn my acl 3 weeks ago, my doctor want me to do therapy for 6 weeks before I can get surgery. Oh it’s hurts so bad when I try to straight my leg. We surely take things for granted...

Can exercise heal my acl?
Dear did you went through a surgery and what is your experience with the knee now?
Hi Dr Jo, thanks for a useful physio and your background explanations of the muscle physiology. It all helps to do the right thing by my knee :-). 1.5 weeks ago, when skiing, I torn my right ACL and partially the posterior horn of my right medial meniscus. First week, no walking, pain, swelling, now I walk almost normally, can do all exercises, but still cannot put full load on the injured leg. I may have had partial tear in both ligaments since my childhood (skiing :-). Had MRI, doc said, no operation, as I am 50. Maybe later, if it bothers me.
My question is: will the scar tissue replace the ACL and how strong will it be approx? Can blood flow, massage and the physio exercises increase chances of ACL re-growth / meniscus re-join? Also, when bending, the knee goes through a dull "click" - a bit painful, at approx 75% of the full bend. Will these clicks disappear too?
You're welcome. Scar tissue does help strengthen the ACL because the ACL itself (a ligament) can not heal. But that doesn't necessarily mean you need surgery. Yes, all the above you mentioned should help. I would really recommend going to see a physio in person though for the best treatment. Unfortunately, I don't know the other answers since I can't evaluate you.
@@AskDoctorJo Thanks Dr Jo, much appreciated.
You're welcome.
These are wonderful! Great video! It gives me the confidence to prepare for surgery and to feel better!

Thank you for this post. I used these exercises with a training client I have and they really helped. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
You're welcome.
Hello everyone! I have a question. It's been 21 months since I had a meniscus crack coupled with "tension on the ACL". Granted, I got 2 different doctors' opinion, but both relied on the fact that my ACL was damaged. No sign of tear though. Only recovery that I did was sit in a cast bed ridden for a month, after I started exercising more and even playing football again (with an elastic knee brace and only playing in goal, so limited running around). I even started going to the gym and working my legs quite a lot, benching a max of 140kg with no pain (I have skinny legs to begin with so that's a great number for me). Ever since quarantine started in March and I stopped going to the gym, I started experiencing great pain in my ACL. I felt (and sometimes still feel) very insecure about the injured knee when walking (like it's about to collapse at any point). I took some recommended pills and the pain started fading away after, but every time I run or walk for extended periods of time, I get a lot of pain there. I cannot currently visit a doctor for a better opinion. Do these exercises work for my rehab process? Thank you everyone, sorry for the long message. Good luck to everybody with the rehabilitation!

MrNengoFlow How is your Knee Now? Did you had Surgery?
@Marshmello:
Yes i had surgery (ligamys surgery), maybe thats not available for you its really a new way.,
I should do surgery if i were you, the hamstring graft is your best option I guess!
With me its going really well, its a tough route back, but you have to WORK HARD and keep going, now after 8 months (after surgery) Im feeling great, my knee feels great, so its really patience..
Im a soccer player (football) but im not yet playing fysical contact, but my sprinting and power are great now and I feel like I can play..
Note:
WHAT A DIFFERNCE FROM 6 to 8 MONTHS so dont get too frustrated, the mental part is tough man..
Good luck buddies
MrNengoFlow Thx Man. Hope you Do Great in Soccer. I am worried about screws that they're gonna fix in my Knee. Does that Hurt

It should be. Good luck.
Hey Doc, love from India ♥️
Just want to ask that is there any specific playlist for complete ACL Excercises ?
Hi
I've injured my right knee. Not sure what I did. Knee locks up and snaps continuously. Will see an orthopedic doctor but thinking maybe meniscus or acl tear. Pain is only during weight bearing. Doing these exercises to strengthen. Wear a brace with support side bars. Helps a little still locks up ( like popping knuckles).
Sounds like it could be the meniscus. Good luck.
Hi, thank you for the video.
My grandma is 70 years old and has got a torn ligament in her right knee which causes her extreme pain. What would the cure to this pain? How could this pain be relieved?
Had a knee injury early March and I’m pretty sure I tore something and my knee is still a bit swollen there time where I put too much weight on it and it pops out of place and feels so uncomfortable, I never went to the doctors due to this covid 19 but hope with these stretches and riding my bike daily it can heal up bc I miss doing my daily activities and this can be a big problem for me. Thank you Doc I’ll be on it
You're welcome.
I'm able to walk, i'm able to fold my legs but when i try to run my knee gets twisted. If i started exercising from today then in how many day it'll take me to get recover?? Kindly reply please
rahmath irshad I am kind of facing the same thing are the exercises helping?
I'm having the same problem , I did the mri and doc told me it's partial acl tear, also he said it's possible to strengthen your quads really good , especially your vastus muscles which are holding the knee in place.
Same here, you just read my mind

Hi Jo, I tore my acl 6 months ago and was told I wont need surgery and should strengthen the muscles..
However after doing recommended exercises and wall sits my knee hurts and feels sore when moving, bending.
Is this normal when doing strengthening exercises? Do people do fine without or Would you recommend an operation generally?
did you end up getting surgery?

Not really. People can do okay without surgery, but if it is a large or complete tear, your knee will not feel stable.

can acl tear can be cured without surgery? i have torn my ligament of right knee. and its been about 3 yrs. actually i still play football but sometimes due to disbalance it again starts paining and dislocating. cant it be ok without surgery? ans me plz
A completely torn ACL will not heal on it's own.
AskDoctorJo Partial ACL can be healed itself
Depends on how much is torn.
@@AskDoctorJo I had ACL tear on right knee six months before and I hadn't any ACL surgery , it paining still ,can i cure it hereafter by doing these exercises and strengthening my legs
As I mentioned above, it depends on how much is torn.

You're welcome. Glad they helped.
I've been back playing football/soccer for about 6 months after I finished with my rehabilitation of my acl, just a few days ago I have been having the same problem with it, it happened during my last match
You should definitely check in with your doctor.
Me too
I have ACL Tear injury😞I thought it’s just a minor injury that will heal by itself but it’s not. But unfortunately I don’t have enough money to endergo surgery .☹️😭
JohnSheen Paceno I’m in the same boat it’s been about a year now. You can definitely do stuff without an acl. I would just take life as you go and not get caught up with the knee injury. Trust me if I could have one thing it would be my knee back. I’m very active and just learned the harsh truth that I can’t play sports to my full potential anymore and it sucks. I even picked up skateboarding to try something new and that bombed cause I blew my knee again. Don’t let your knee get in the way of your success it’s just something that is very common and sucks when you can’t repair it cause you feel worthless. Trust me man you aren’t alone and we’re all here for each other dog. Stay strong brother, prove people wrong my friend.✊
My best advice is to work as much as you can to get the money and get the surgery you cannot do much things when you have an ACL year from that point things will go down if you try to exercise and keep on running. I know not having the money must be hard but getting back your knee is probably worth it. I had an ACL tear during August.. had my surgery on September and ever since then I has that mindset to over come your challenges and trust me you will have challenges for your rehab. Good luck and be careful.

hi Dr.Jo 😃 I've recently torn my ACL and i havent been able to work... I got to see the orthopedist and he told me I probably didn't need a surgery seeing its only a partial tear (which I'm super happy about) but he also told me I couldn't see a physiotherapist at the hospital cuz the list is too long so he told me to go see one at a private clinic ... which I cannot afford
.. I then started looking online for exercise and help with this... I was very unsuccessful until I found your video. you are very strait to the point and show exactly what to do 😃 I'm now gunna follow your exercise and I'm sure when I go back to see my orthopedist in a month he'll be really happy with my progress! i know its not much but I "bought " you a 5$ pair of socks Lolll hope they keep your toes warm 😂 and please keep making these awesome videos.. I'm sure more people like me need you 😄😄 thanks so much 😄😄

Left knee Acl tear and meniscus new repair surgery done as on 23rd August. Stitches removed as on 13th September. I am following your stretches. Tunnel drilled in tibia using direction guide and fro m the ant-medical surface of tibia exiting at the foot-print of the tibia attachment of the original ACL. Petroneus longus graft harvested using a tendon stripper through a 3 cms long lateral incision on the lower third of the leg. Post 23 days still there is numness between knee and feet
You should probably check back in with your surgeon if you feel like there is an issue.
I am recently diagnosed with complete tear of ACL..i am suffering from this from the last 4 years and decently found the reason.so is it possible to recover from it without surgery?
Hello Doctor,
I have pain in my right knee and swelling. I visited doctor . He suggested to do reports and MRI.
MRI results - Ligament sprain with partial thickness tear about 30% near the femoral attachment. Oblique tear is seen in the posterior horn of. the medial meniscus extending into the inferior articular surface with adjacent grade 2 injury.
Doctor has suggested for surgery . I have started doing this excercise from last 10 days.
Should I do this exercise or not ? Should I go for surgery or not ?
Please suggest.
Hi dr Jo
I was diagnosed for a partial all tear on my left knee over two months ago - I am 73
Apart from the exercises you demonstrate in this video I would like a recommendation for suitable exercises to tone down my thigh area from the knee to groin - I desperately need to reduce that area
Thank you

Sometimes they get turned on randomly. You can easily turn them off by clicking the "CC" button at the bottom of the video. If you want to leave them on, you can drag them to another area on the screen, or you can make them transparent. You can even automatically translate them into many different languages!

Hey thanks for the video... I recently tore my ACL, MCL and Meniscus... I have been advised not to have the surgery right away because the knee is still stiff and painful. I have to do 2 weeks of Physiotherapy, plenty of ice packs and pain killers before the surgery can be done.
In the meantime i am struggling with sleeping and moving around and was wondering if you could do a video or advise on the following as well:
1. The best sleep positions pre operatively and post operatively.
2. The best ways to move around safely pre operatively and post operatively.
I can add that to my list of videos to make. In the meantime, this might help with general sleeping positions: www.askdoctorjo.com/proper-sleeping-position It's really about what's comfortable for you. Good luck.
Thanks a lot Dr. Jo for this video. How long the leg gonna be ready for surgery say after 2 weeks sessions is good enough and what will be the benefit after the surgery?
