Ruptured my ACL, partial tear on MCL, and slight medial meniscus tear(that won't require surgery the doc said, just ACL)

Just wondering, for those who replaced their ACL, which autograft or allograft did you guys get? Also what was the recovery time for you guys to be at the level of physical activity right up until the injury happened?

And how long did it take until the pain went away? I'm 8 days post-op with an achilles allograft and the only pain i have is from blood rushing into the injury area from standing up and such...and it won't really seem to subside or go away...any remedies to this?

Just found out Derek Rose and another guy on the knicks tore ACLs today too lol

 

WHAT.... Imma call you.

 

Took me about 2 months and when it's about to rain I can feel it hurt my leg lol

 

My surgery was in 2004... looking down the barrel of another one.

 

for pain? or until you could play basketball?

 

what happened with the surgery? details?

 

dude...

mine was done in 1984... might as well be 1884...

have a foot long scar. no. chicks dont dig scars down there. acl, mcl, everything that i could F' up in my knee... i did.

was in a cast for 6 months. crutches for that long, if not longer... IIRC.

30 years later... i think i need a tune up.

oh did i mention i have 2 screws in my knee?



worse part? nurse that shaved my leg before surgery wasnt even hot...


lol.....

 

Same here. Got a tear in my MCL and whenever it's getting really cold or about to rain, my knee starts to hurt.

Sucks that you have to experience and go through surgery for that injury. Torn MCL/ACL is one of the worst pains I've ever had.
