knee pain 2 years after ACL Reconstruction

by Celia
(Sykesville, MD)

I had ACL (allograft) repair done about 2 years ago. I originally injuried my knee (left) playing indoor soccer. I had been very active, playing soccer, running, walking, basketball and jogging before this injury. I can't play soccer anymore but I have played softball, jogged and do alot of walking.

I have noticed over the last year that my knee seems to hurt all the time, feels weak at times, aches, hurts when I run or walk (on the treadmill) and sometimes I get a burning feeling across my knee. It almost feel as if my knee is sprained all the time. It also seems swollen. I am going to call the Ortho Doc who did the surgery to make an appointment but I wanted to get some info. I haven't seen the Doc in a year so I am a bit worried.
