ACL Surgery Pros and Cons

ACL Surgery is an important decision. There are several good resources out there that can help you decide whether to proceed with the surgery or just do rehab strengthening work. One important thing is that the surgery, according qualified surgeons, is not time sensitive. So, its best to take time to think it through. If anything, the risk of ACL surgery is to have it TOO SOON, before your swelling fully subsides. Having surgery too soon will jeopardize recovery of your knee and its flexibility- potentially cutting short the fullness of your range of motiion (ROM).
