What could i do to determine if i stretched my acl cadaver graft?

Physical Exam: A well trained sports medicine orthopedic surgeon can typically tell by doing a couple different exams to your knee. Laxity is the term for looseness of the acl graft in the knee. In addition, some doctors use a kt1000 handheld machine which can document and measure the laxity. My suggestion is see a fellowship trained sports orthopedic surgeon.

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?
