  • part 2 con'td: i feels like when i run full speed or w/e and try to make a turn its fine, but when i try to kick as hard as i can, he seems to shift, and swell up big again, causing some pain for 3-4 days. Any clue if this is an ACL TEAR or MCL TEAR or anything else??? some help would be appreciated and dont say doctor, cause i heard u can heel it naturally. im not a hippie, but i hate surgery and cant handle the recovery time i here. plz let me know what it could be and the options availabl

  • Heel naturally? Don't bet on it. If you let it go, damage can happen elsewhere. This is something that needs to be evaluated by a doctor. Or you have to give up soccer.

  • From an article the Dr. Goradia wrote 'Some patients return to sports as early as four months after injury, but typically it takes six to nine months for most people. It is difficult to give you a cookbook type of rehabilitation program.'

  • this injurie is way too common , and it kills the love and passion you have for your sport.... pathetic

  • im afraid to walk down stairs now lol

  • My Orthopedic Doctor said my ACL seems fine but, the carthlidge lower around the bottom( i forgot what its called) might be sprained or hurt or something, could it be bad?

  • I torn my acl on march 9 2011 playing basketball it hurt like motherforker and now I having surgery on june 17 2011 :/ wish me luck guys. Is it hurt after surgery ? I want it know.. Plz?

  • I torn my acl when I was play basketball I feel when my femur is twisting then ** pop** a loud. It PAINFUL!!!

  • I completely tore my acl and I have to get this done...I don't know whether to get a donor or use my own...and I also want to know if anyone has had this surgery adn been successful enough to not have had torn it again...I just want to know it's possible

  • i had an acl tear in my right knee. i had the surgery and healed good and went through rehab and stuff. now two years later i havent been in any athletic activity since and when im just messing around doing flips and dancing and stuff sometimes it will hurt. like i may land a rough landing on a flip and my knee would hurt. i no i have not tore it again it does not hurt that bad. but it feel very unstable. feel like i cant do anything of higher difficult or it tear again. even wen i dance

  • Ouch must hurt like a mothaf*cker.

  • Im on month 11 post op, I refuse to sprint, I barely have the balls to jog, or step foot on the basketball court , but I'm lifting heavy weights, 500 on my squat with no pain. I still get constant little pops (non painful), which my doc said I will have forever. my only advice, crank your cpm machine, do lots of heavy and slow i mean slow! rep leg exercises, and avoid everything, haha
