Torn ACL issues - Thanks in advance?


I was a catcher (baseball) throughout school. Well, the last game of the season in 2005, I tore my ACL. Cleat caught in the dirt and was twisted by another player as foot stayed planted. It was a huge crunching sound and I had no stability in my knee. It was a complete tear, and had surgery 30 days later. This was the most painful experience of my life. I now have stability but have yet to achieve full motion. It鈥檚 very painful to squat on that knee. It is still numb as well. It was done via patella...Question is: How long does it take to get feeling back? I鈥檝e tried stretching but it鈥檚 so painful. If I force through it, will it eventually regain full motion? I love to run and find it very painful sometimes...Anyone experience this? What are the best exercises to do? I have a friend who also had full reconstruction and had zero problems and healed quickly...

ive already had physical therapy and was told that there was nothing more they could do...

Try to get into some physical therapy. That will get it back into shape. Call you Dr. and see what he thinks.
