A member asked:
How long are you on crutches for after acl revision surgery using a patella tendon graft? and what is rehab like after revision surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See below: Although it varies, most patients progress to weight bearing as tolerated in a brace over an approximate 2 week period and rehab with the goal of returning to full activity over approximately 12 weeks. Each case is different, I would discuss your specific case with your surgeon.
