ACL Surgery in Dubai

ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) reconstruction is a surgical procedure to repair a damaged or torn ACL in the knee joint. The surgery is performed under general anesthesia and the damaged part of the ACL will be removed and replaced it with a new ligament graft, typically taken from your own hamstring. The graft is secured to the femur and tibia using screws or other fixation devices.

ACL Surgery Recovery

After the surgery, the patient will spend several days in the hospital, during which time they will receive pain medication and physical therapy to help them regain strength and mobility in their knee. They may also use a brace or crutches for a period of time to protect the knee.

Recovery from ACL reconstruction can take several months, and involves a combination of rest, physical therapy, and rehabilitation exercises to help rebuild strength and flexibility in the knee joint. You will need to avoid high-impact activities and sports for a period of time, and progressively increase activity levels as the knee heals.
