ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) injuries are one of the most common sports-related knee injuries, especially among young athletes involved in football, basketball, volleyball, and running sports. An ACL tear can be serious—but with timely treatment, full recovery is possible.

🔹 Common Symptoms of an ACL Injury

• Sudden “pop” sound at the time of injury

• Rapid swelling of the knee

• Instability or feeling like the knee may give way

• Pain and inability to continue activity

• Limited range of motion

🔹 Treatment Options

🏥 Non-Surgical

• Usually for minor or partial tears or non-athletic individuals

• Includes rest, physiotherapy, knee bracing, and anti-inflammatory meds

🩺 Surgical (ACL Reconstruction)

• Recommended for complete tears or for athletes who want to return to high activity

• Done via arthroscopic ACL reconstruction, a minimally invasive procedure

• Involves replacing the torn ligament with a graft from the patient’s body or donor

🔹 Recovery Timeline

• Phase 1 (0–2 weeks): Rest, ice, controlled movements

• Phase 2 (2–6 weeks): Begin physiotherapy, improve strength

• Phase 3 (2–6 months): Progressive strength training & balance

• Return to Sports: Typically around 6–9 months, depending on rehab progress

If you’re dealing with joint pain, stiffness, or limited movement that hasn’t improved with medication or physiotherapy, your orthopedic doctor might recommend arthroscopic surgery. But what is it, and how do you know if it’s the right option for you?

🔹 What Is Arthroscopic Surgery?

Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a tiny camera and instruments to diagnose and treat joint problems through small incisions. It’s commonly done for the knee, shoulder, hip, and ankle joints.

🔹 Who Can Benefit from Arthroscopy?

You may be a good candidate if you have:

• Persistent joint pain despite conservative treatment

• Swelling or stiffness in the joint

• A torn ligament, meniscus, or rotator cuff

• Repeated joint dislocations

• Loose bodies or damaged cartilage in the joint

• Labral tears or impingement syndromes

🔹 Benefits of Arthroscopic Surgery

• Smaller incisions, minimal scarring

• Faster recovery time

• Less post-operative pain

• Lower risk of complications

• Precise diagnosis and treatment in one procedure
