I called it a "tweak" when my knee did that. Pain is so similar to when my ACL first popped, it's very scary when it happens. Over 3 years since my original incident, nearly one month post op (Nov 4th!). good luck in the rehab process. I know you'll crush it. So far the worst part for me is the dreaded "starting over" mentality. But already a few weeks of rehab behind me, every day adds a brick to my walk.
I’m chasing getting my ACL fixed now too, it’s buckled more and more this year and while I’m carrying my little girl too, it’s very scary sometimes that I could hurt her just because the army never fixed it properly.
Big fan of your work Wesley. Good luck! You’ll do great! As you know, it’s a long, but rewarding journey. Thank you for always providing us with informational acl content 🙏🏽
Hey Wesley! Thank you so much for sharing, it's really reassuring the way you talk about it. I will be having an ACL surgery and meniscus repair at the beginning of Oct.
@@amoreazione3563 Yea I had my surgery 2 years ago and it's back to normal now, a little bit of stiffness when I do heavy exercises but way better than not doing it. Good luck and take care if you are going through the same thing.
@@Prim3Pursuits first off, thank you for taking the time to answer me. I have surgery due in 12 days. How long did it take you to get back to walk properly after surgery? and by that I mean without limping. Thank you again :)
Good luck Wesley! I’ve been living with a full ACL tear in my L knee for over 10 years...after having the ACLR a couple years before. I’ve been thinking about having mine done again...this news helps inspire me to make that decision.
Hello sir! Even i had a minor ACL TEAR on my left knee almost 9months back, i have been also following u on instagram from past months, it helped me a lot! After almost 6months of rehab i can move strongly! I play cricket and i am fast bowler and fast bowling always puts pressure on the knee. So is it good if i continue the sport with strong quads and hams with minor ACL TEAR?
What procedure did you end up getting I am on ACL number two on second leg and have found ur videos very interesting from your perspective. I ask on what graft you chose due to ur ability to tolerate pain early as I have struggled with both of mine with early healing and ability to weight bare. I got th quad tendon graft which I know is painful but seems like I'm much behind ur timelines
I’m actually in the same position, I waited 7 years I’m getting surgery on Friday and I’m really nervous cause I can run jump have good movement. Im just afraid I won’t be able to do all Of that anymore. Any tips how to calm the nerves. I set my mind that I’m not gonna rest for four weeks I’m going straight back to work on Monday and hopefully push my self to start walking.
hello when I saw this video, I am very happy. It would be good if you share your steps and experiences with us. I am also a physical therapist and would love to benefit from your experience. It would be very good for us colleagues who follow you from other countries if only subtitles and spoken language are plain and easier. Thank you in advance.
Hey Wesley! I tore my acl over 2 years now and i didnt get a surgery because after my left knee stopped swelling i was able to move but sometimes it would buckle on me and it would hurt is it a good idea to get a surgery? Because i want to move like how i use to or close. Pls let me know thanks
Hello sir, I just watched your video. I am 29 years old from India And having the same problem with acl injury and medial meniscus wear nd tear. This injury is about 10years old. Dealing with the pain and going for the surgery right now. Is it good to go for having the surgery and how long will it take to be back on my daily routine?

What type of acl reconstruction graft did you end up choosing?
What do we think of allograft for 16 year old male that plays competitive basketball--complete ACL tear.
