ACL Repair

The purpose of the research is to investigate the effect of preoperative Cryoneurolysis of the knee on postoperative pain management in patients undergoing autograft anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (a surgical procedure that makes a new ACL using the patient's own tendon). Cryoneurolysis is an approved process of applying extreme cold temperatures to targeted nerves in order to decrease or eliminate pain. . If you take part in the research, you will be randomly assigned (assigned by chance, like a flip of a coin) to Group A (standard care) or Group B (standard care plus Cryoneurolysis). Participants in both groups will undergo standard ACL reconstruction and receive standard preoperative and postoperative pain management. Participants in Group B only will also receive a standard treatment of Cryoneurolysis to their surgical knee within 7-10 days before their scheduled surgery. Participants in both groups (A \& B) will be asked to bring their remaining postoperative pain medication to their postoperative follow-up appointments for review by study personnel. Participants will also be asked to complete a survey about their knee activity, function and symptoms at these appointments. Your time in the study will last until the completion of the 12-week postoperative follow-up appointment.

The goal of this clinical trial is to see which type of strengthening exercise with a tight band (blood flow restriction) helps people recover better after ACL reconstruction. The study includes adults after ACL surgery who are doing physiotherapy to rebuild thigh muscle strength and knee function. The main questions are: * Does heavy strengthening with blood flow restriction improve thigh strength, knee function, and daily activities more than light strengthening with blood flow restriction after ACL surgery? * Can light strengthening with blood flow restriction give similar benefits to heavy strengthening while putting less strain on the knee? Researchers will compare a heavy-exercise program plus blood flow restriction to a light-exercise program plus blood flow restriction to see which gives better strength and functional improvements. Participants will: * Come for supervised physiotherapy sessions and do knee exercises on a machine, using either heavy or light loads while a cuff on the thigh gently squeezes to reduce blood flow. * Have their leg strength, and knee questionnaires checked several times during the study.
