"fugh n**** we Hungry!"My cats are taunting me, they know I cant chase them.
had a grade 1/2 ACL tear back in college. there was a bit of on site hemorrhaging a day after. couldn't walk properly for 3 days. no therapy and stayed active. 5 years after that, I was experiencing a lot of pain on that area and have sort of a locked knee sensation that is quite painful. it gets worse from sitting for awhile and would experience some arthritic sort of pain. completely ignored it til 7 years later that it finally popped (broke) and had to undergo surgery (12 years of ignoring it). it's been messed up for a long time possibly close to 20 years even after surgery. had to go to rehab and active physio and maintenance til it finally resolved my recurring pain.Had my first knee injury just before the new year started (grade 2 MCL tear) Haven't been the same. Docs said I don't need surgery. Got two opinions. Still don't feel 100 %
also, one thing I remember is that every game that I play, I would be suffering from bad knee pain every single time.had a grade 1/2 ACL tear back in college. there was a bit of on site hemorrhaging a day after. couldn't walk properly for 3 days. no therapy and stayed active. 5 years after that, I was experiencing a lot of pain on that area and have sort of a locked knee sensation that is quite painful. it gets worse from sitting for awhile and would experience some arthritic sort of pain. completely ignored it til 7 years later that it finally popped (broke) and had to undergo surgery (12 years of ignoring it). it's been messed up for a long time possibly close to 20 years even after surgery. had to go to rehab and active physio and maintenance til it finally resolved my recurring pain.
also, if you are curious on considering a future knee surgery, this is how my knee looked post-op. it's called microsurgery acl repair which they say could only need 2 weeks of recovery. unfortunately I have to undergo an emergency procedure since the surgeon didn't know the extent of my injury not til I was in the OR. some fragments broke off and needed some more work and screws (organic) for attaching some of those salvagable fragments. if I only knew how bad it was and would need 4-6 weeks of recovery, I would have chosen to undergo a microfracture surgery instead. anyhow, I'm fine so it should be good but could have been way better.Had my first knee injury just before the new year started (grade 2 MCL tear) Haven't been the same.

red circle is top part and yellow circles are the bottom part of the knee. you can see how small the surgery was. also, my surgeon is great when it comes to the procedure but has the worst bedside manner. probably because he is the head surgeon of one of the top pro football team.
that's what the medical term or procedure for it. I didn't see the tools nor was awake during the procedure as I got knocked out by the count of 2. that was some strong sedative they used. next I know, I was already in the RR unit and the procedure was done. then some imagination went thru my mind that I could have died without me knowing. guess people get more anxious as they get old having their medical procedures performed.Looks like mini arthroscopy
You should go to physical therapy if the doctors say you don’t need surgery. I got a lot of respect for PTs, a good one who really knows what they are doing can help a lotHad my first knee injury just before the new year started (grade 2 MCL tear) Haven't been the same.

Damn. RIP to himReminder to go and get yourself checked out whenever you can. Had a friend with nagging back issues finally go to the doctor last month and he was in the hospital for the last month cause they found he had a rare form of kidney cancer and it was stage 4. He passed yesterday and he was not even 31.
