  1. I had my ACL and miniscus repaired, they used my hamstring for the repair.
    It's been 4 weeks and I'm finally off the crutches and using a cane. What kind of PT movements can I do on my own? I did go to one PT treatment and have been doing some stretching and leg curls ( no weight ), but that's all so far. Any advice?

  2. Will you be going to more sessions with PT or are we going to do it all? :)

    General advice: Don't ever jump ahead of your program b/c it will set you back! Make sure as your therapy continues, that you start adding stress the knee that has similar affects of surfing! :)

    How old are you?
    How bad is the swelling if still any?
    Sitting with both legs stretched out in from of you, can you actively contract your quads equally when comparing left to right?
    How does your Range of motion, ROM, compare L to R?

    Get back to me on this and we will move fwd ASAP!
