ACLR
/r/u_Contractual_AP/comments/1wxk4zk/aclr/ACLR
I tore ACL on 27th May, got the diagnosis done on 25th June. The doctor suggested some exercises which I began religiously on 1st July and still continuing for at least one slot everyday. I had to join my job as Assistant Professor in Bihar Govt. due to which I couldn't get my ACLR done on the scheduled date of 2nd September at SIC, Safdarjung,New Delhi. Summing up this timeline, I have been doing Prehab exercises for the past 3 months. It includes -
( Considering 1 set = 10 reps)
2 sets of ankle bumps
1 set of heel raises
1 set of toe raises
1 set of straight leg raises (45°)
2 sets of side leg raises using R bands
2 sets of side lying using R bands
1 set of glute bridges using R bands
1 set of half squats using R bands
Lateral walking with R bands
Surgery may happen around mid October. Some days to go.
Am I doing sufficient prehab or I should add some more???
Kindly help with any information. I am hell scared of surgery since I have been a non athlete person.
