Good morning sir! I had an ACL injury last 3 years, i couldn't go for a surgery due to financial problems, i couldn't afford to go to an ACL surgery. It has been hell for me sir, will i have arthritis in the future, if i don't go for a surgery?
Had ACL Surgery (patellar graft) 18 months ago. Lot’s of pain when I am sitting especially in a car. Knee feels better when moving, standing, & walking. Lifting weights at gym feels great as long as I don’t overdue it. I’ve accepted that I will probably always have some pain. Just staying positive and controlling the health of my body around the new graft. Good luck to the rest of the ACL folk. ✌️
Played division 1 college football and tore my ACL in my left knee 3 times & had surgery 3 times. Worried that I’ll have arthritis in the future. I want to do all I can to keep it from happening while living an active life post football.
I also tore my acl in 2006 and got a surgery but it failed with a year I don't play any sports since then and living a near normal life since then got an mri done recently which show completely torn ACL with a meniscus tear but no sign of arthritis yet I am 40 now
Guess I drew the short straw! I had a very successful ACL surgery 12 years ago and have been very active since. I started feeling stiffness and pain in the surgery knee several months ago that has been persistent and affecting my ability to do any type of plyometric/speed/agility type exercises without pain. I finally went to see my sports MD. Interestingly, the radiologist concluded no signs of arthritis. But when I spoke to the sports MD, he says he’s starting to see early signs of post traumatic arthritis in my surgery knee. Something about fissures? And something else. I don’t know I couldn’t tell. But he says my symptoms are consistent with arthritis which is a BUMMER as I’m only 33. But gosh, did this really make me feel old! Lol! Got any advice for me? What should I expect down the road? Knee replacement? 😂😭
I got my ACL surgery in 2007. In 2021 i was diagnosed with osteoarthritis. I'm now dealing with issues in the same knee. I am debating on getting a knee debridement surgery to help with range of motion and relive stiffness. I am 30 years old and still compete at an elite level in my sport.
I also tore my acl in 2006 and got a surgery but it failed with a year I don't play any sports since then and living a near normal life since then got an mri done recently which show completely torn ACL with a meniscus tear but no sign of arthritis yet I am 40 now
Update: I just got my knee scoped I had a torn lateral meniscus and several loose bodies. I am doing rehab now and was able to walk about a day after the surgery.
Here we are 6 weeks post op! Everything is going on the right direction. I am back to doing 98% of what I was prior to injury. Let’s this be motivation to all! I was down and out but now I see the light at the end of the tunnel. I will play again and I will be a champion again!💯
@@abrahamsanchez5046 Was the ACL for sure but most likely had some of my meniscus removed too. I found out I had arthritis in 2021 then tore the meniscus in 2022. In just a little over 6 months post op and I have fully returned back to my sport. I still do weekly rehab and strength work on my knee. Also a huge game changer has been hot yoga my joints feel so good and loose especially my previously injured knee.
Newer studies show arthritis risk is 40% higher after acl surgery than with a conservative treatment of the torn acl. Kessler MA, et al. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc. 2008.
I’m 33 years old and on my third ACL graft. The first one i was 19 and they used a cadaver it lasted about 5 years until someone took me out in softball on purpose. The second one was also a cadaver 2 years after i had my son their wasn’t an injury to speak of but i only done a couple weeks of PT i think that was an issue. Finally the last one was done at MU in Columbia ,mo. I have to have a bone graft first they drilled bone out of my femur up by my hip...VERY PAINFUL! Worse that ACL surgery. So now I’m about 4 months out and my knee is much more stable. This time they took muscle off my quad on top to use as a graft. However I’m having a lot of pain in my calf muscle and my shin and I’m not sure why. If you could help me in understanding or know what questions to ask i would greatly appreciate it.
I also tore my acl in 2006 and got a surgery but it failed with a year I don't play any sports since then and living a near normal life since then got an mri done recently which show completely torn ACL with a meniscus tear but no sign of arthritis yet I am 40 now
Hey! I am 22 years old and have had an ACL surgery in each knee and have had a meniscectomy in each knee as well (5 surgeries in 5 years). My first surgery was in 2014 and my most recent one was in 2018. I am beginning to get concerned because now both of my knees sound like they crunch/grind when I try to stand up from a squat that is below parallel. Do you think this could be the beginning of arthritis? Or do you know of any other explanation for this? I don't have much pain except when I do something that requires deep knee flexion. Is it important that I see someone about it now before it so that it does not get worse?
You will get arthritis that is the fact of any knee surgery. I tore both ACLs 80 percent chance of getting arthritis. I will probably be walking with a cance at 40 because I doubt I can handle another knee surgery. I have to have all my surgeries fully awake. I am in pain everyday at the age 21 and I did everything right.
Thanks Dr, I will have my acl&pcl on November 27,2018, please I want you to tell me what should I do to get back to my normal activities after the surgery, I appreciate the way you explains so many things,but of to know I'm sacred about wither I will be fit to resume back to football or not .
Great video thanks for the information! Im 33 and its been 3 years since my acl surgery and im doing great playing tennis and soccer 3 times a week. Do you recommend any type of worm ups for the knee?
Hey, do you mind me asking which kind of surgery/graft you had? I tore my acl and I'm looking into options/experiences, I'd really appreciate any kind of info :)
Hello, I'm waiting for ACL surgery in England but due to the pandemic the waiting times for surgery is 12-18 months... Am I going to cause problems in my knee by walking on a unstable knee that long? or should I pay for surgery pravetly sooner rather than later? Thanks you in advanced ☺️ Christy
24 years old, tore my acl 16 months ago and just ran a marathon last week, before then my acl surgery knee was fine but now major arthritis in my knee -.-
I feel stabbing pain in the tibia and the medial meniscus. The areas feel stiff constantly and it flares up often. I got an acl reconstruction and a bucket handle tear medial meniscus repair almost 20 years ago. Been dealing with the pain here and there since I got the surgery. And the knee tweaks. Moves slightly. Even though I got the acl reconstruction. Which uses part of my patellar tendon as a donor for the acl.I can't even kneel on a solid floor or carpet. Without it being sensitive or hurting due to it. It is the experience that I've had since. Also my doctor adviced me not to get an operation on the longitudinal tear on the meniscus on my other knee. And he told me that 16 years ago. Which also hurts here and there.
I also tore my acl in 2006 and got a surgery but it failed with a year I don't play any sports since then and living a near normal life since then got an mri done recently which show completely torn ACL with a meniscus tear but no sign of arthritis yet I am 40 now
I had my ACL and meniscus surgery a year ago using my hamstring graft. My extension is not 100 percent there and my knee is in mild tolerable pain everyday. It also swells up everyday. You could slightly see my knee a little more swollen than my normal left knee. It not drastically swollen red or anything like that. I can feel it super swollen inside. When my knee sells up it bends and it is super hard to get my extension when i stretch. When I sit in class for example and I get up after 20 minutes of sitting, it takes forever to get to my extension and end up limping for like five minutes until it goes back to "normal" (even though i do not have full extension yet) It does not hurt when my knees touch together when walking or doing exercises, but around my knee hurts. Lastly, I still cant be on my knees without uncomfortable slight pain for example like doing a pose for yoga.I also have femur and tibia bruising on the right side of my knee from my injury. Now question, Its been a year, do you think i have arthritis or should i keep doing my therapy and stretching? healing too 100 percent take time? is this normal pain? Thank you Dr Geier.
I'm scheduled to undergo ACL surgery, I want to know how tough it is after getting arthritis. I mean if my normal activities are affected after getting arthritis.
@@vamsisrikanthrallabandi7015 well if you don't get the surgery then the chances of getting arthritis is a lot more, so do think carefully. I've met many of the people after getting surgery who did yoga to build muscles around ligament, but you need to have time for that, so consult your doctors and experts before taking any decision. My surgery went well, but still I'm not the same that I used to be.
Hi doctor, I underwent ACL surgery recently with slight damage to menesus which was not showing up in MRI but was found out during surgery. Do I have a chance of arthritis even if I am going to live a normal Life and not involved in too much sports activities? If yes, What are the measures I need to take to prevent that to happen?
@@anmolk4909 I am fine now... not yet actively playing any games or running.. but no issues with walking, getting up and any other activities in normal course of life.
Sir, I was diagnosed ACL tear right knee and PCL tear left knee 9 years ago. I haven't had any surgery and always move with supported knees. Nearly, I feel more painful when I move though I wear supported knees or not. Do my knees begin the process of arthritis? If I accept surgery now, is it any change? Or it's not any affect and my knees will be more and more painful though I have surgery or not. Thanks so much.
Sir I have osteoarthritis with ACL tear 12year back now I had my surgery for ACL tear 5/7/18 I have a lot of Pain and swelling how long it Will take to recover or I will have pain lifelong.
I had an ACL Revision. 2nd surgery in a span of 12 months. my doctor said I developed some arthritis. my knee cracks when I am at full flex and trying to straighten the knee. it's also sort of painful. should I worry about this cracking? can I'd of anything to prevent it.?

Hi David. I like your videos, they help alot. I had Complete ACL tear and minescus repair surgery because of an injury while playing soccer, and am in week 4. The brace is removed and Am able to walk without bending the knee now. The question is whenever I do the knee bending excercises as adviced by my surgeon I feel pain in my meniscus and I also feel like my Tibia is missing it's alignment in the meniscus. Should I be bothered or will the repair takes time to heal and stop cracking/popping. Please revert. Am worried that even after surgery if I face the same problem how should I react. Thanks in advance.
khaja moinuddin hi i also suffered an acl and meniscus tear about a year ago.. now i am in week 5 .. i had the same issue.. whenever I do bending exercises and especially when i put a roll beneath my knee and presses against the bed.. it starts paining alot... i also want to ask that should i be worried about this... or it will repair as time passes..
Tony Walker I’m about 7 months post op, and it feels stiff and hurts after sitting for a while, but loosens and feels normal eventually. Of course, my leg has a large, numb portion which makes kneeling impossible.
Dr I had surgery five weeks ago. What do you mean when you say one can develop arthritis 10, 20, 30 years down the line. Could I get the estimate normally when does it start hitting a patient? Even when I straighten my knee during leg press using a theraband, I hear a crack sound. I am really quite nervous about everything. Hope you reply
i used to hear similar sounds from my knee after my surgery, especially why i exercise. my doctor told me it is quite normal. so don't worry about it n continue your rehab. however, we should always be careful to avoid a relapse. often, when i had doubts, i used to visit the doctor and he would do a quick test to check my ligament. that kinda gave me a lot of relief mentally 😊
I also asked my doctor today, she said once I strengthen my quads, it will get better. I hope it all gets well, learning about arthritis is scary though. Let's hope both of us get through successfully
Hi Doc, I had my ACL surgery in 2015 Nov. I did not go for any post therapy for the knee due to a superrrrr busy lifestyle. I had the surgery 1+ months after the injury since I was scared of being under the knife. So far during these 3 years, I had severe arthritis from full body joint pain to just 1 joint pain.
