ACL injuries are nasty so I sympathise big time with you!!! Typically, treatment for an ACL injury depends on the severity of the injury. For minor injuries, rest, ice, compression, and elevation (aka the RICE method) may be enough to help reduce swelling and pain. However, for more serious injuries, surgery may be required.

After surgery, physical therapy will be an important part of your recovery. You may wanna work with a therapist to help rebuild strength, improve range of motion, and regain mobility. It’s also important to follow your doctor’s instructions and avoid doing anything that could potentially re-injure your knee.

Remember, everyone’s injury is different, so it’s important to work closely with your medical team to determine the best course of treatment for you. And don’t forget to take care of yo’self, stay positive, get plenty of rest, and stay active as you can during your recovery. Good luck!
