Torn ACL: A Healed MRI Doesn't Mean a Working Knee | Dr Chris Raynor
I'm Dr. Chris Raynor, orthopedic surgeon. Can an
ACL tear actually heal in a brace, or is surgery still the answer?
We break down the ACL cross bracing controversy — the extension brace protocol, what the healing data really shows, and what it means for acl rehab vs acl surgery from a surgeon's side of the table. If it involves ligaments, I'll tell you the truth most doctors won't.
In this video we cover the cross bracing claim, how full-extension bracing is supposed to heal the anterior cruciate ligament, the re-rupture and laxity risk, rehab timelines, and my verdict for athletes vs everyday knees. Join our intern army of people getting smarter about the human body.
