A member asked:
My boyfriend had an acl reconstruction a few months ago with a hamstring graft. his friends have signed him up for a bungee jump. is this wise?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wise? No.: I am the wrong person to answer this question, because I am a chicken. There are risks inherent in bungee jumping independent of an ACL reconstruction. With the ACL construction in mind, what kind of activity is your boyfriend engaged in now? If he is finished with his physical therapy and he has full return of function, the operation may not be a factor anymore. But why risk it?
