Undergone ACL Reconstruction Surgery. Problem Reoccurring. Another Surgery Needed? Any Ayurvedic Treatment?
Hi Sir, My name is vishnu vardhan i had undergone through the ACL reconstruction surgery before 4 months. But again i am getting a problem. Doctor is saying that again you have to go to the acl reconstruction surgery . Will it cure through any ayurvedic treatment or else again i have to undergo through the surgery.

Hello. Acl reconstruction is usually very successful. Rarely, like any other grafting procedures it may present with failure in repair or postoperative tear. Ayurvedic treatment is unlikely to be of any help. My opinion is that you consider undergoing a second procedure to prevent early arthritis. Hope i have answered your queries, thanking you and have a nice day.
