Ligament failure


Posted by venu b

Hi, I am Venu age of 27, working as s/w professional.

6 year before, I had an accident and which caused my ligament failure. At that time, I was unable to stand and walk. After 1-2 weeks, gradually i started to walk and like that completed my graduation.

I consulted to Orthopedic at that time. They first suggested for Arthroscopy and said it diagnosis and do minor surgery i.e. reform of ligaments.

Now, consulted doctors are suggesting for ACL reconstruction /surgery.

Granting long leaves is a matter for me.

 

Q1>If I go to surgery/ACL reconstruction, then how long it will take to walk/run as normal person?

 

Q2>After surgery/ACL reconstruction, is their possibility of failing/disjoint of same/side ligament?

 

Q3>Is there any alternative than surgery/ACL reconstruction, e.g. exercises/ medicine?

 

Q4>After surgery, when i can start to go to office/regular duties <might be using support/stick>?

 

Any suggestion for it will be greatly appreciated and thankful.

 

Thanks in Advance.

Regards,

Venu
