6 Days Post Op ACL Reconstruction with Patellar Graft

Hi there! I am on day 6 from having surgery on Thursday. Each day is getting better but I still can’t really feel the left side of my shin and a bit of my calf.. there’s a bunch of bruising on the left side of my leg but the right side I have feeling again. I hear it’s normal to have numbness and it will gradually come back but it’s just making me nervous. I can move my feet and ankle easily and no other issues. Was just curious if anyone who had recovered experienced this? How long did it last or should I be concerned?

I have my follow-up on Monday.

Thanks!
