Following posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) surgery, patients may experience pain, swelling, stiffness, and difficulty walking or climbing stairs. They will need to gradually rebuild strength and stability to safely regain use of their knee. The success of the surgery depends largely on adherence to the correct rehabilitation program as instructed by the surgeon and the established protocol.
