Dear Forum,
Im a basketball player from the Maldives Islands, i had an injury during a game which resulted in a torn ligament and miniscus...The MRI scan shows the ligament is torn to an un-repairable level. The DOC has suggested for a replacement of the ligament with an artificial one...is there anyone in the forum who has replaced a ligament? can anyone tell your views?

i had the surgery after a football injury.

my knee with the surgery is actually stronger than my other knee 15 years later it is still strong

6 to 8 weeks of constant workouts to get back in shape

if you do not stay in shape it can get loose or week

Does it guarantee that everything will be fine after surgery ?
