ACL Rehab (timeline question)

by Thomas

I am currently 4 months post op and I was wondering how was the timeline for people who already had acl surgery and have recovered or who are still recovering. Right now and jog, run, and jump a little. Where do yall currently stand right now with rehab?

every surgeon has a slightly different protocol for ACL rehab, so your timeline likely won't be exactly the same as others. But from what you describe, it sounds like you are right on track with your recovery.

My patients start jogging straight ahead at 10-12 weeks, and we start jumping drills in a controlled environment at 4-5 months, progressing to single leg hop drills at 5-6 months.
