In rehabilitation therapy, a physical therapist teaches patient how to do exercises at home. Sometimes, patients can also have to wear a brace to stabilize knee and use crutches to avoid putting weight on the knee. The main goal of rehabilitation treatment is to reduce pain and swelling, to restore knee's full range of motion as well as to strengthen knee muscles. This therapy is effective to treat an ACL injury in individuals who are relatively inactive, engage in moderate exercise and recreational activities or play sports that involve less stress on the knees.

In most of the ACL injury cases, the surgical treatment is done to get relief from ACL injury. The surgeon can recommend surgery if:

• Patient is an athlete and wish to continue career in sport that involves jumping, cutting or pivoting
• More than one ligament or the meniscus in the knee is injured
• The injury is affective your daily activities.

During ACL reconstruction surgery, the surgeon removes the damaged ligament and replaces it with a segment of tendon. This replacement tissue is known as a graft. In this procedure, surgeon uses a piece of tendon taken from another part of the knee or a tendon of a deceased donor. After surgery, patient has to undergo a rehabilitative therapy. Successful ACL reconstruction surgery along with rehabilitation treatment can definitely help to restore stability and function to the knee.
