Torn ACL Home Remedies?

I recently tore my left ACL yesterday and I don't want to let this get me down and prevent me from doing what I got to do? Anybody know any remedies to speed the healing process and what not?

I completely tore my left ACL doing a forward flip and went a year w/out repair. I strengthened my hamstring muscles, but was becoming tired of not being able to straighten out my left leg completely. Surgery was easy. Wished I had done it right away. I took liquid glucosamine/condrotine on a regular basis before surgery, and took it every hour after surgery (only the one day) then back to a normal dosage. It worked for me! I was riding the stationary bike the day after surgery. Recovery was fast! Good luck! Make sure if you end up having surgery check the doctor out. I had a doc from CO Spgs that worked on the Olympic people.... Great guy! Awesome doc!
