RE: Avoiding tendonitis post ACL Repair

Its been 6 months since I recieved surgery to repair my ACL. The graft was taken from my pattela tendon and I’m worried that tendonitis will develop when I get back into training next season. Would you reccomend and therapy or support to reduce the risk?

    Have you not had PT in the last 6 months? Patellar tendonitis is possible if the quads are not strengthened enough prior to rigorous activity. Your surgeon should have an ACL protocol that outlines the does and don’t’s of post surgery exercise.
