Ok, just got the call, surgery is over. The left knee had the torn ccl too. He explained further that what they do is take out the damaged part and then use thick nylon suture to repair and then the scar tissue that grows around it acts like a replaced ligament. Recovery will be a bit longer. 6 weeks of strict cage rest. 4-5 months until full recovery. They're gonna show me the 3x a day physical therapy tomorrow. Glad it's over. |
