***ANTERIOR KNEE PAIN POST ACL***

We commonly see patients post ACL reconstruction with pain in the front of the knee. ESPECIALLY with patellar tendon grafts. Rather than consider it an unavoidable consequence of surgery, we feel like this is something that can be managed with the right approach.

1. Scar massage and desensitization

2. Gradual, graded introduction of kneeling type activities

3. Regaining FULL knee flexion in all body positions

4. Appropriate loading of the patellar tendon. Post knee surgery, the body finds lots of ways to AVOID loading the knee. If we don’t load it, it won’t just get stronger by resting.
