Ligaments do not receive adequate blood supply to heal on their own. Therefore, ACL injuries do not heal on their own. If left untreated, they will progressively get worse and lead to:
What does rehabilitation for ACL injury for athletes entail?
Typically, rehabilitation for ACL injuries lasts for around 4-5 weeks, but since athletes put more strain on their joints, they need longer rehab periods for better movement and to prevent recurrence of the injury.
Rehabilitation for knee injuries mainly focuses on treating the injuring and providing the patient their desired range of motion for the joint. The treatment is performed with three goals in mind:
Most athletes can start training for their sports about 4-6 months after the surgery, but doctors recommend a full rehabilitation before they start participating in the sports again. The rehabilitation period can be divided into:

Yes, if your injury is limited to an ACL tear, you can start walking with a torn ACL once the pain and swelling have subsided. However, it is not recommended as it poses a risk of permanent damage to the knee joint. It also increases the risk of the development of arthritis in the knee joint.
Swimming is usually recommended after ACL surgery as it strengthens the quadriceps (hamstring muscle), which helps support the tendon graft. However, swimming and running should be avoided for at least 4-5 months after the surgery. If you want to, you can swim with just your arms without paddling your feet 2-3 months after the surgery with your doctor’s approval.
Swelling after knee arthroscopy is very common, especially near incisions. It usually dissipates within a few weeks with over-the-counter medication and ice massage. Physiotherapy after the surgery promotes recovery and helps resolve the swelling much faster.

I was diagnosed with an ACL tear and was unable to move my knee properly. The doctor explained the condition and treatment options in a very clear way. The surgery and recovery process went smoothly. With regular physiotherapy, my knee strength and stability have improved a lot. The staff was supportive throughout. Very satisfied with the overall treatment and care.
