Re-tearing an already reconstructed ACL?

Has anyone done it? If so, what did it feel like, and how did you get it reconstructed again?

Probably would feel like tearing you acl like you did the first time. And they would just do surgery again.

i'm sure you'd kind of have the same symptoms, but it would make sense that it would hurt a lot less at the time it happened, since it wasn't the original ACL right?

You my friend, have no comon sense. It would hurt the same, you still have feeling.

i would think you'd have feeling in the sense you could feel it pop. but in reconstructive surgery, they completely sever your hamstring from the back of your leg, then they attach it with screws into the bones...so it doesn't seem that the completely detached piece of hamstring would hurt as much as the original ACL that was naturally connected, rather than connected by screws.
