ACL Surgery

I am a 17 year old and I am a running back on my high school football team. During my August camp I got hit and I fell funny. I felt my knee pop. I went to the doctor and he said I needed surgery to fix my ACL.

That night my mom's friend gave me some message oil to put on my knee called Body Regenerator. He told me to put it on twice a day. After about two weeks my knee was feeling better but I ran out of the oil so I went on line and found more. I continued to put the oil on my knee. Last week I went back to the doctor to schedule my surgery and after examining my knee he said I did not need surgery anymore, my ACL was healed.

I checked to make sure this stuff wasn't the same banned substance Andy Pettite used to speed his healing and it wasn't. It is all natural.

I had an ACL issue, I thought it would heal itself and kept trying and trying (doc hadn't realised it was ACL)... eventually when it came to having the op the ACL had dissolved and there was no ACL there to remove so could put the hamstring graft in.

I wish that there was something out there that could work to heal the ACL like you describe. If there was, it would be a great thing for athletes everywhere, but would put me out of a job.

Many times an ACL injury can be misdiagnosed initially - that is why an MRI is often ordered to confirm the clinical exam. If you didn't have an MRI, you likely had an inconclusive exam first, and then the follow-up showed that you had not torn your ACL after all. Either way, you don't require surgery, and that is a good thing.
