ACL Tears: Can You Tear It Multiple Times? - Causes & Recovery

Yes, it is possible to tear your ACL more than once. This can happen if the ACL is not properly repaired or if the patient does not follow their post-operative rehabilitation instructions. In some cases, a second ACL tear can occur even if the patient has done everything correctly. This is because the ACL is a relatively weak ligament, and it can be easily injured, especially during high-impact activities.
