ACL Rehabilitation

ACL rehabilitation refers to the recovery process after an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament, a key stabilizing ligament in the knee. This rehabilitation involves several stages, starting with reducing pain and swelling, followed by restoring range of motion and strength. Patients engage in physical therapy that includes exercises to rebuild muscle, improve stability, and enhance functionality. Gradually, they progress to sport-specific drills to regain confidence and readiness for physical activity. Full recovery can take several months, focusing on safe reintegration into regular movement and sports. Proper rehabilitation can significantly reduce the risk of re-injury.
