ACL Reconstruction Surgery Recovery - Fourth Month

4 Months

It's been 4 months since my ACL reconstruction surgery. I felt significant improvement in my knee at about week 16, where bending it for too long didn't seem to bother it as much, and stressing it by using it a lot didn't seem to have the same negative effect. I did notice that any lateral movement (even minor) often causes a non-painful crack, but the Dr. didn't seemed worried and said once the swelling had subsided, life would be back to normal and the knee problem would be an afterthought.
