Depends if surgery is required or not. I'd shoot Gygax a PM. He's the resident sports therapy guru.

All I know is you need to really listen to your Physical Therapist and do exactly what they say afterward or you can lose o alot of mobility in the affected knee.

Good Luck Rush. Hope you do well and rehab well.

Rush - Who told you it was a slight tear? Let us know how everything works out. And feel free to shoot me a PM anytime. I'll help in any way I can.

My family doctor told me. He said I'm showing the classic symtoms. Swollen, knee buckling, loud popping, awful pain. He said he's pretty much sure, and that I needed to see an orthopedic as soon as possible. This sucks.

Definitely see an orthopedic for a definitive opinion.

Here's a key question. How did you hurt it? The exact mechanism if possible.

Girl you should know better than to pull crazy stuff off without kneepads now

Seriously tho, get that checked out ASAP. I am hoping its not an ACL pull. The sooner you get it looked at the sooner you will feel better. Try to use it as little as you can until then. Even if you hop around on one leg until then.

meniscus tear is not that bad. I have had two of them. The recovery time is minimal compared to the ACL. Good luck with the surgery and hope you have a quick recovery.
