How long does a torn ACL take to heal?
Hi, Torn ACLs typically don’t heal on their own. They need to be surgically reconstructed if in fact he wants to play a sport that involves a lot of cutting and change of direction. It also requires a lot of physical therapy to rehab the knee. Typically, recovery time is between 6-9 months, sometimes longer. If he doesn’t want to play that type of sport surgery isn’t necessary, but still a lot of physical therapy should be done to strengthen the muscles supporting the knee. You are welcome to see me in clinic or via telemedicine. Hope this helps! Dr. Dehkordi READ MORE

Initially after an injury it is recommended that you ice, elevate and rest the injured area. After about 3-4 days you can slowly start rehabilitation exercises and gradual return to activity depending on the severity of the injury. If you are still having pain 3 weeks out then I recommend you get a full in office examination and assessment with a doctor with expertise in sports medicine. READ MORE

I have a strain in my back after playing hockey. Should I try warm water therapy to ease it?
Warm water therapy may help ease the pain but it won't affect the actual healing process. If it feels better that's fine and you can do it. Muscle strains usually require time and rehabilitation exercises to help them heal. You can follow up with a sports medicine physician and a physical therapist for help with the rehab exercises.
