Take your time to get healed up before going back.
See what happens. I believe eventually your body will adapt to your new skills.
As a Registered Acupuncturist, you may have to go for some treatments. Because of the nature of putting the needles BEHIND the patella, acupuncture has the advantage to heal you quicker and increase the blood flow back there better than (IMHO) anything else!
