just do it since u have completely tore it.. There's no other way n u won't want an unstable knee going along rite?
Btw, a good surgeon is only half of the journey, the other half is good physios. In a certain way, good physios are more crucial. As u c, the surgeon only spent few hours on the operation, and the following weekly follow up. But thereafter, u still have to spent "MONTHS" doing ur rehab. |

QUOTE(heng84 @ Apr 9 2012, 05:51 PM) i also did my MRI today certified ACL completely torn with some meniscus tear due to football 3 weeks ago.. twisted my knee.. i dint think its that serious at first.. but fk. haha. damn it.. .. at that time when my right knee pops, that was freaking awesome the pain.. i cant explain.. but after that i still can walk.. just numb and weak.. drove home and next day i am walking but in pain.. after a week i walk normal again.. just that when i bent ..the knee suddenly lose balance.. now i have to visit doctor again next appointment most likely gonna do surgery.. i dont know why my leg did not swell , where else my friend broke his ACL he say he couldnt walk at all for a week and the swell was intense acl tear wont affect ur straight line walking/running, its when ur pivoting or cutting in football u'll feel the instablility of the knee. |

QUOTE(heng84 @ Apr 13 2012, 01:38 PM) bro thanks for the advice i know its no hurry.. but in order to claim my insurance my agent ask me dont drag too long.. i've did the surgery, after 1 year, i think i'm pushing myself harder in sports! If u want to have an active lifestyle n play sports, do consult with ur doctor n see what are the options available.and i want to do sports.. i mean possible that no longer able to play football.. at least i can play golf or something lighter without any trouble.. if i dont do operation i scared i cant even enjoy light sports.. i can feel that im gaining weight lol!! |

wow .. thats very good.. what sports do you play? any sports that you try to avoid? any do's and don't? im just very scared it will snap again if i go over the limits football.. well, just do ur rehab n let the physio tell u when ur ready to go back, it will take some time as u will need to train up ur strength, balance, n etc.. |
