An ACL injury is challenging for a year, but there is potential for recovery. Usually the ACL is treated conservatively and can be recovered in about three months. In the early stage, bed rest should be provided, the knee joint should be immobilized with a brace, and active functional training of the knee joint can be carried out four to six weeks after the injury, and weight-bearing walking can be carried out on the ground to increase the mobility of the knee joint in order to help recovery. If the ligament has obvious laxity and rupture, it is necessary to rebuild the anterior cruciate ligament through surgery to restore the normal movement of the knee. Failure to recover one year after an ACL injury may be due to inadequate treatment and rehabilitation in the early stages of the injury, or a more severe injury. It is recommended to strengthen the joint and muscle exercise to increase joint flexibility and muscle strength, and encourage the ligament to return to normal elasticity. It is important to insist on the exercise without interruption, otherwise it will affect the functional recovery of the knee joint and make the joint ligament laxity as well as joint adhesion, etc., which will eventually be difficult to heal in the long term. Combined with some rehabilitation therapy, such as massage, hot compresses, etc., to promote blood circulation in the injured knee joint, which will help recovery. Long-term poor recovery also requires surgical treatment. Patients are advised to consult their doctors in time and choose the appropriate treatment and rehabilitation method under the doctor’s guidance.
