Regain Knee Stability with ACL Surgery in Mexicali
If you’ve suffered a torn ACL — a common knee injury in sports or accidents — Dr. Alfonso Chávez, orthopaedic trauma surgeon in Mexicali, offers specialized surgical care to restore joint stability and help you return to your daily life or athletic activities safely.
What is ACL surgery?
ACL surgery is a procedure to reconstruct a torn anterior cruciate ligament — a key stabilizer of the knee joint. The damaged ligament is replaced with a graft, often from your own tendon, to help the knee regain strength and stability.
What causes an ACL tear?
An ACL injury usually occurs due to:
- Sudden stops, twists, or pivots in sports like soccer or basketball
- Direct trauma to the knee
- Sudden changes in direction or awkward landings
You might feel a “pop,” followed by swelling, instability, and difficulty walking or bearing weight.
Who needs ACL reconstruction surgery?
Surgery is recommended when:
- The knee remains unstable after injury
- You want to return to sports or an active lifestyle
- The ACL tear is complete or involves other knee structures (meniscus, cartilage)
Dr. Chávez evaluates your case with imaging and physical tests to confirm the diagnosis and recommend the best approach.
What results can be expected after ACL surgery?
- Improved knee stability and function
- Reduced risk of future knee damage
- Return to sports or physical activity (usually after 6–9 months)
- Lower chances of developing early arthritis when treated in time
Recovery involves physical therapy and a gradual return to movement under medical supervision.
