A member asked:

I am suffering from knee ligament acl injury i need to know the best exercise to recover from it

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Acl recovery: simplistic answer is PT. You need to regain full range of motion and strengthen quadriceps and hamstrings. There are many different exercises to do this but many may not be appropriate for you. Physical therapy directed rehab is a must in the beginning
