A member asked:
It hurts for me to kneel 3 months after patella tendon acl reconstruction, what's going one?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Common problem: Anterior (front) knee pain is very common after an acl reconstruction, especially after a patellar tendon autograft. Kneeling may always be a problem. Keep doing your rehab. I would expect some improvement with time.
