How To Treat Bruise And Swelling After Undergoing ACL Reconstruction?
Hello;I had ACL reconstruction (allograft) 2 weeks ago. The bruising is…well…alarming. It is severe. I ve been able to keep the swelling under control until about a week ago; nothing I do prevents it and it is making PT impossible and recovery is extremely, extremely painful. I ve been checked for blood clot and do not have one. I would love to show you pics! Help me. I think something is seriously wrong.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern healing is kind of process and this takes some time if condition is not favourable, like in case of infection and high blood sugar level this become very late and painful too, so such condition need to be ruled out, hope this information helps, take care.
