How to Come Back Stronger After ACL Surgery
Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries are quite common and affect approximately 250 000 people per year. Athletes playing sports involving jumping, pivoting, and hard cutting such as basketball, soccer, and football are at the highest risk. Athletes who suffer from these injuries and have a subsequent surgery have muscle weakness, reduced joint ranges of motion, reduced sports performance, an increased risk of re-injury and long term knee injury including osteoarthritis.
