###Human: I had ACL reconstruction surgery. Kindly tell me the time taken to get normal completely. ###Assistant: Hello. I read your concern. In my opinion, it will take another 6 to 8 weeks for you to start running. I hope you got your movement range completely in your joint. Now, do your rehabilitation and weight training properly as advised. You can start walking normally. The pain what you are referring could be due to muscle stiffness or soreness. Get a gentle massage done for your thigh and leg muscles. Do not strain your joint. This should help you to get rid of the pain and the discomfort.
