Post Acl Replacement Popping
Posted: 01-15-08 00:12am

My ACL was replaced in July with a graph from my hamstring. I also had some meniscus repaired/removed in two spots (inner and outer?). Now when I get up or walk my knee pops A LOT. Some of the popping feels like tendon, but some almost feels like grinding. Any ideas if this is something to worry about or is it common?

Any comments would be appreciated!

Hey, I had the same surgery-- meniscus and everything.

Did it always do this? Even in your physical therapy after the surgery? If it's painful I'd go back to the doctor. My knee only pops when I've been sitting in the same position for awhile so I never really bothered to get it looked at again. Where do you feel the grind?

It began to pop while I was in physical therapy, and progressivly has gotten more frequent. The Gronding/popping feels like the meniscus. It is not painful at all, just irritating.
