Got a medical question? Let me stretch my brain.

I'll give ya a whirl Cyanide.

My right knee has no ACL or medial meniscus. I don't have any trouble with the stability of my knee. It has never "popped" again, and it doesn't limit my ability to be active when I want to. I can play squash, hike, climb, etc. I didn't get ACL replacement as I felt it unnecessary.

However, I have noticed over the last year or so that it takes greater effort to get up from a crouching position and my knee aches a little more than usual. It's not a big deal, but I'm not getting any younger.

Would the ACL replacement surgery help with this?
