Torn ACL and LCL - Freshman Football.

I tore my ACL and LCL on this play. It may not look that bad, but trust me, it was. This is a Freshman football game, and I'm 14 years old. The date that this occured was August 24th, 2009. I went for an MRI two weeks after and the results said that I tore my ACL, LCL, MCL, and Meniscus. I went for surgery on October 20th at Penn State where I was operated on by Wayne Sebastianelli. While operating, he noticed that my MCL or Meniscus weren't bad, But I still had ACL and LCL reconstruction. I used my hamstring tendon for the ACL, and a cadaver for the LCL. If anyone has any questions, ask away.

Well if you're not on the varsity or JV team as a freshman than you're prolly not destined for a college scholarship so no loss here (Wow what a dick I am)

@movalcadillac Actually, I was in 8th grade when this happened, and I was starting on the Freshman team.

hey i tore my acl, pcl lcl mcl and meniscus, im getting surgery on it this saturday.Howd the surgery feel? what about now?

[Slappy034]

@dltjxor Not gonna lie, it felt terrible after the surgery. Now, it's still not fully healed. I have a lot of painful scar tissue and I still need to build up more muscle in my leg.

[tmoneydoubledeuces]

did you tear it when you made that last cut before getting tackled?

[Slappy034]

@tmoneydoubledeuces Yeah, he hit it while my knee was still at an awkward angle.

I've torn my ACL in my left knee twice, once during soccer, once during football. I tore my ACL, LCL, MCL and meniscus in my right leg two days ago longboarding. All this happened over the course of the past year and a half. FML.
