Summary
This study tests whether a single injection of botulinum toxin (Botox) into the hamstring muscle can reduce tightness and prevent a complication called cyclops syndrome after ACL knee reconstruction. About 132 adults who still have a stiff knee one month after surgery will receive either Botox or a placebo. The goal is to see if more people can fully straighten their knee two months after the injection.
