Health Myths: Knee Injuries

[walkingperson1]

I snapped my ACL 9 years ago, but still haven't had an operation, cos I'm sill too young (I'm 15 now). in the past couple of months or so, I think I've torn my MCL aswell, hurts like mad sometimes, and the bones seem to touch with every step I take.... I'm constantly seeing doctors, but each one seems to says different things, and in very complicated language that I can barely understand :(

Maybe he is presenting the myths in a more subtle way. Instead of 'bashing' you with it. He is simply letting you 'bust' your own myth based on the information he presents. Just my thoughts.

This guy isn't even a real doctor, he's vet

The title reads, "Health Myths: Knee Injuries" Maybe I missed something, but what were the myths being discussed? - I didnt hear any.

I was on a motor-scooter and a car ran the redlight and direct hit to my knee I think my mcl is messed but 6 years ago I did mri they said acl I think, now I got no insurance and the doctors said " its fine nothings torn etc but I cant squat on one leg and I can't do the main quad exercises at the gym and it feels unstably and it still looks bent in! 6 years later! what should I do

[matsisana]

This would have been a great vid...but i cant hear a word you are saying with all that racket in the back ground!!!

[TQT500]

This video sucks! It is all wrong! btw it is called meniscus.

[EcoDimension]

@TQT500 he was talking abt ligaments n not the cartilage

[BigmanKennedy]

i think i pulled my MCL in a basketball game when someone stepped on the outside of my leg and my knee went inwards. it got better in about 5 minutes and could use it pretty well. the thing is it hurts like hell when i keep it still for a long period of time... how should i treat it?

[rehanb]

@BigmanKennedy see a doctor right away

[31003emo]

is he eyeing me with that right eye...lol

[pkziya]

im Capoeira fighter and i've been training for a long time.. 2 years ago i injured my knee and till today it hurts sometimes. The problem is sometimes even if it doesn't hurt ,, when i just walk it sounds like that : KHIRCH- KHIRCH- KHIRCH... like my bones are broken in there.. I have no idea what to do....

fighitng in MMA on 22nd november and urgently need advice tips on excersiuses for my knee

[ROCKETkiidsz]

i think have a stretched knee tendon can u help me try to get rid of it or any tips?

[TheR9onaldo]

Nice information, but i am wondering when do they remove the screws which are used to firm fit the new ACL ???

[blacksheep91494]

a torn ligament never heals the screws stay in forever except in aa few cases buut they stay in for extra support

[TheR9onaldo]

thanx alot for clearfy....but dont u think that human body would treat the screws as a strange body(infection) and the WB cells will fight them??

im been in the gym about 4 moths now and i have never traind my legs with weights , because im afraid of injuring my knees. So i decided to start working out my legs to , so i did leg extensions, leg curls and calf raises, i traing with low 50-55 lbs weight because it was my first time and did about 2 x 10 . Next day my hole legs were sore and my knees were aching. my legs arent sore anymore but my knees still ache now and then.

No pain when running or bending knees.

Aching injury sign ?
