Limit the force of gravity to create a more posterior tibial sagging, by encouraging your patient in the first 6 weeks to avoid positions where there is a tibia sag, such as wall slides. You can also advise sleeping with a pillow underneath the proximal tibia allowing the tibia to be in a better position and reducing the posterior drawing force. When considering non-operatetive management for PCL, it is important to discuss short and long term goals with the patient for optimal decision making.

When working on improving the ROM, prescribe exercises from a prone position to limit the effect of gravity. The PCL is rarely injured in isolation. [4] [5] They typically occur alongside other ligamentous, meniscal or chondral damage. [6] They are far less common than ACL or other knee ligament injuries. [4] [7] All grade III combined PCL and posterior-lateral corner injuries. The combination of posterior laxity and rotational instability may lead to suboptimal outcomes as the joint fails to regain stability essential for active work-life or return to sport when returning to sports.
