Strengthen: Physical therapy to strengthen the surrounding muscles. If persists need to see the surgeon who did the surgery.

Get your motion.: Usually "pops" after ACL surgery could be scar tissue or altered tracking of your kneecap. Patients who get their range of motion back quickly after surgery have less chance of developing scar tissue.
