A member asked:
I did aclr on 17/22/2021, then in the third week, my acl graft stretched, on 3-4mm lachman test and 1-2mm on anterior drawer test. did the graft fail? can the graft be re-tightened naturally by the time? can i return to high impact sports?

These are best answered by your surgeon as he/she knows the findings at surgery and your present clinical situation
