Recovery Time For A Detached Acl ???

[distanced]

They will also have to repair a ton of other torn tendons and ligaments, but the ACL is completely detached.

What kind of recovery time will I be looking at after next weeks surgeries?

Thanks in advance!

It depends on things like if you frayed the ligament...how tight they can surgically pull the ligament back...where along the ACL you dislocated the ligament...

You said other repairs..

Are we talking about MCL, PCL, Patellar tendon....what exactly makes it tons?

6 TO 8 months is usually a safe bet...

before I can do anything?

I'm talking like mountain biking and lifting and all. I'm hoping I'll at least be able to go to the gym to train upper body a couple weeks after the surgery.
