@TheCrazy243 dont wanna freak you out but its a tough thing to come back from i just finished rehabing after mine, my surgery was in november, to answer your question its doesnt hurt as much as it is just like weird, your gunna be stuck in your bed for at least a week its uncomfortable and if its like mine your gunna have terrible ankle swelling and pains, but just prepare yourself to be out of comission for the first month then itll start to get better, best of luck to you

ok! thanks a lot :)

depends on how you feel! if its stable to you then yes within several months of strength training you will be ok and could return to sports. But your chances of completely tearing are a bit higher. In order to prevent from doing so, strength your quads and hamstrings! If it feels loose, get surgery and you will be better in the long run!

both is used to test the integrity of ACL but lachman is generally used to test for One Plane anterior instability of the knee, while this pivot shift is to test anterior + rotatory instability.

These small quick and CHEAP tests are done and clear cut cases won't need an MRI.
MRI scans don't just grown on trees y'know!
