ACL Knee Injuries - Surgery vs. Physical Therapy | In Motion O.C.

http://www.inmotionoc.com (949) 861-8600 Join our physical therapist Haze as he discusses one of the most common knee injuries - ACL ligament damage. This injury is especially common among athletes, where sharp cutting movements, accompanied by impact, can often result in ligament tears. For younger people and athletes hoping to return to their sport, surgery is almost always a requirement, as dynamic movement and full range of motion are necessary to compete at the highest level. For older people or others participating in less physical activity, surgery is not always required, as consistent PT can help return the majority of the range and function necessary to live a normal day-to-day life. In either case, however, one thing is constant - dedicated, routine physical therapy following the injury or surgery is absolutely imperative. A particular focus on the quads and hamstrings is needed in almost all knee injury patients as these muscles have typically weakened following trauma and extended rest. So, do you need ACL knee surgery? Or are you at the point where full-on athletics are no longer part of daily life? The certified physical therapists at In Motion OC can help you figure this out, giving you the exact diagnosis you need to determine your plan for repairing your damaged knee.
