MCL rupture

[Kevinski406]

sorry my friends, this is a terrible injury. You will be done for quite some time trying to re-habilitate this. Sadly you will be out even longer if it is the one and only ACL.... Hopefully you didn't commit the "terrible triad" as you will never be the same. Well, not without God's help that is. Sorry, that is just the way we are made.

@mashhampton, not true I've had both ACL's completely torn and I still walk without problems.

[thomasjhouck]

@BJJDude1 retard you only have one acl

[Kevinski406]

@BJJDude1

My friend, you only have one Anterior cruciate ligament, one Posterior cruciate ligament(which apparently you can live without in most cases) , one Medial collateral Ligament, and finally one Lateral Collateral Ligamnet per knee. If you ruptured your ACLs bilaterallly then you have a second chance or you did not fully rupture them. Sure it was not PCL? you can have a stable knee joint without those apparently.

tore mcl off the bone on both ends a week ago and it hurt like hell for about 2 minutes! Rugby!! in brace and having op on Monday! movement is very limited. any good rehab sites? vids?

[mashampton]

I completely tore my mcl in a varsity football game, luckily I'm a sophomore. You don't need surgery for your mcl it will heal on itself with rehab and if you tore your acl you wouldn't be walking at all

[condorjq]

i have this, but got no insurance :(

[pacman491]

@condorjq I hear ya man....thousands of dollars in surgery and only professional athletes are awarded that financially

[algall75]

MY leg does this, waiting for surgery!

[cowsandoctopuses]

do these tests hurt? i'm about to get assessed for a torn ACL

[MrBlueSkeleton]

@cowsandoctopuses no my test on my knee for my ACL i felt no pain

[brousseaua]

I am assuming that this is not supposed to have sound?

[xjcm278x]

i dont know what i tore but i was biking and hit a jump landed all pressure on one of my knee and the pain was high i tried to walk and it just gave out i cant walk on it its like behind the knee in the back and feels like someones pushin it to the side and i fall attempting to walk anyone know whats wrong?

[poonageproductions]

I have surgery for march. I wish i was private though.

[airmaxzz12]

i just about fully recoverd from acl surgeryy, during basketball game last night the same knee bent inward toward the other knee i felt a rip think i half way tore my MCL there was no swelling and veryy lil pain any other ideas of what it could have been??

[markybennett20]

if you rotated you could have torn cartilidge, and i dont think much swelling occurs with cartilidge tears.

[Keethmoon]

@airmaxzz12 tearing it doesnt hurt much but u need surgery to fix it

i did it... pulling it and stuff hurts alot but tearing it off usually doesnt

[16galo]

i got the same problem :(

[dinah259]

How is your knee now? Does it take time for it to heal and will it heal by itself?

[Mohicanmiller]

I managed to tear my MCL last night at my last football game ever. (Senior) Anyway, I probably managed to rip up my ACL along with it... Haha. Another average day for me though...

[azfootball]

i tore my mcl last night. last contact practice of my life and before the state championships. ive played for 10 years. what are the chances of that?

[1GATORNATION15]

Mine is like this and I stil dont like watchin it.

[MacArthurPiper]

Just done mine Sunday :o(

[curlytutu]

i tore my mcl on the motorcross track a week ago.... definatly the most painfull injury i had so far! hope you knee heals good man.

[HumanitarianMurderer]

i had an mcl surgery recently because of how badly it was torn. it was torn from the thigh bone and i cant put weight on it for 3 or 4 more weeks im on week 3.

[tomica85]

Is this video III grade MCL rupture? I had my mcl tear 4.5 weeks ago and still can not play but it is getting better..

[McBoutEd]

Crazy to see that kind of gapping in full extension!

[goboygo18]

how dose a ligement rupture

[mandlnpickr]

I agree!! Sometimes you can be fooled and "feel" gapping if the knee isn't fully extended.

[XpolymerX]

but yeah sir , sorry about this :( These aren't fun at all. I remember there was a time when I could stand on my right leg and bend my left knee in. It was gross, but it was great at parties.

[teraithiawar]

lol yeah i still do that lol, it is pretty sick after bout 10 shots just push that knee in and it dont feel like shit:P

[XpolymerX]

mcl's are underrated I did my first in Jan. 07 which was a serious 2. I just tweaked it again (1 I guess) I when through rehab for 4 months for the first one and the pain hasn't stopped. I still ski, play ice hockey and jog with it, it just stays in it's brace

[teraithiawar]

lol, i tore my MCllike 3 days ago but imines not that bad thats a break mine moves to the side slightly its grose, and yea it herts alot

[antman1983]

Oooww, this is difficult to watch, I got my plastercast taken off yesterday after an MCL injury like this.

When playing rugby, somebody landed on the side of my knee and it bend like 45* inwards.

I've done some pretty stupid things in my time, broken my arm in 3 places, cut a gouge in my head with sheet metal and, last year, put a screwdriver through my hand.

The MCL injury though is by far the most painful!

[badm0nkey]

they used to surgically repair mcls but they usually just let it heal on its own now...unless of course its torn beyond self healing.

i had to wait about a month to have my acl surgery because they were letting the mcl heal

[badm0nkey]

aw ow. i tore my mcl and acl in 99. my knee went out sideways like 45 degrees...ew it was the grossest feeling EVAR.

[aran2k7]

how did u recover from urs i still have movement like this. ive had acl reconstruction but they did nuffin for the mcl

[skoks93]

i play soccer and still dont know wat i tore but its probably watever ligament is on teh inside of the knee wenever i try to get back on the field i land on my footwrong and it bends inwards...the worst feeling ever instant shock

[smith6sonian]

they usally dont operate on mcl's but they put a cadaver in for mine, because the first surgery didn't work. anyone else had that happen

[aran2k7]

ive had acl reconstruction, mcl damaged aswell they didnt operate on the mcl but it feels unstable doctor i had is a cowboy.

[Gokz99]

i have a mcl injury on my left knee now and im burning that i cant go on the soccer field and play...

[CoronaLaw3807]

I tore my ACL, my lateral meniscus and a patch of cartilage on the medial side of my left knee during basketball one day...I wish I could go back and know to not play that day :-(

[Metatarsal]

man its so easy to do your A.C.L, i did mine by over streching for a football in a training session!!

had the operation, it took me 18 months to get back to where i was!!! (wouldnt wish the pain on my worst enemy)

[yeti98277]

i tore my mcl in a motorcycle accident and after 2 weeks of RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation) tore it again at a carnival and again running a PE mile. and again playing badmitton with a brace on. i agree with you i wouldnt wish this on my worst enemy.

[TonganSoIja63]

pain is awful. i agree

[chiefdude14]

very intresting how a grade 3 mcl tear can give your tibia so much lateral freedom....and some can walk on it...nuts

[TheColoradoan]

Thanks....?

[rapcity4life]

WTF!!!!
