ACL rupture🏀part 2
To replace a ruptured ACL, a graft is needed to act as the “new ACL”.🦿
This baller had his hamstrings tendon along the inside part of the thigh removed through a small incision🔪, to replace the ruptured ACL. Without proper rehab, he felt the hamstrings on the injured side was weaker, and had mild discomfort when he fully bent his knee🧎🏼♂️. To work around that, on top of the manual therapy provided for managing his ni**le, we were strengthening his hamstrings at a comfortable range. We will gradually progress the exercises to build up his strength and help him move full range pain-free💪🏽⛹🏽♂️
澳洲最常見的前十字韌帶重建手術方法，是以大腿後肌其中一條肌肉 — 膕繩肌的筋腱去取代已斷裂的前十字韌帶。
這位籃球運動員由於在手術後沒有進行正確的復康訓練，他明顯感覺到被取出膕繩肌筋腱的一方大腿後肌力量較弱，而且膝關節屈曲幅度較大時會有輕微不適。除了西式針灸、手法治療和肌肉協調訓練，循序漸進的大腿後肌力訓練強度和幅度是改善膝關節不適及重返賽場的重要一環。
