Not a lot of change; if I walk with a straight leg it’s okay but any side loading at all crippled me. Just have it strapped up in a brace and that seems to keep it okay for now. I might try and go to get it checked out again this week. | |

The stabbed in the knee feeling makes me think I had a partial tear in mine due to squats. Sitting in the cinema was the worst like the knife was getting twisted around in the knee. It was almost unbearable | |

It felt like someone stabbed me in the knee immediately after it happened but 10 seconds later the pain went away so I carried on riding, got a bit drunk and then rode back to our digs in the dark. Got in the hot tub and that’s when the pain set in. I can bend it although it hurts doing so however keeping it in one position isn’t painful, just more of a dull ache. I can walk on it if I keep my leg locked out straight. Rotating my foot side to side is the worst pain though; up and down is fine so driving isn’t too bad but changing from accelerator to brake and back is the worst! | |

You'll need the op surely. Nasty one that. | |

I damaged my ACL a week ago taking a stupid fall snowboarding, it’s not completely torn so shouldn’t need surgery but either stretched it or slightly torn it - my GP just gave me a knee brace and said to ice it daily but if it was still giving me trouble in two weeks then to go back. If anything it seems to be getting stiffer, I’m hobbling about and it can take some weight but it’s certainly not feeling any better; has anyone done the same and was it best to put weight on it or use crutches and keep the weight off? |
