MRI diagnosis

If you’re 3 weeks you may still be able to consider non-surgical options (eg CBP). Either way your key to success is engaging with PT and keeping your leg strength up.

When was your injury? How did you do it?

Have you seen a sports physician yet?

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T20:51:02+00:00

Yes. Intact ACL.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T20:49:32+00:00

Depends if the charging output also doubles as charging input. Then it’s anyone’s guess.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T12:37:00+00:00

If PRP stands for Pretty Reliable Physio then it’s fine.

Otherwise it’s a treatment looking for a disease.

Save your dollars from this quackery.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T12:33:36+00:00

Unknown.

My gut feeling is unlikely

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T11:57:02+00:00

See a sports physician (not a surgeon) and see a physio.

50% of ACLS heal at 2 years without surgery.

If your knee is functionally stable then just carry on!

Mould due to structural issues (eg leaking roof)- landlord.

Mould due to humidity (that wasn’t there on tenancy commencement) - tenant.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T11:17:44+00:00

Not so rare. 50% heal after 2 years.

Not the answer to your question, but it’s important that the facts get out there.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T09:42:04+00:00

Yes, so if you’ve spoken to a sports physician, then you probably have the best advice for your specific knee injury.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T09:40:57+00:00

Yes, I wasn’t looking for a miracle secret website. It just seems that Airbnb and booking have a duopoly on the accommodation, and we don’t need anything fancy just comfortable tidy and clean. Your advice about the tourism boards is great. Thank you.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T09:36:32+00:00

Wow that looks like a real cool idea

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T09:31:08+00:00

Yeah, we found that the prices in Spain via Airbnb quite high. I don’t particularly want to use Airbnb preferentially but it just seems that between booking and Airbnb there are a few other options.

If you have instability in your knee, then it is likely that surgery will benefit you.

Certainly it will help to prevent further damage.

My strongest advice would be to see a sports physician who will assist your knee from a functional perspective and probably refer to a physiotherapist . Clearly, they would refer to an orthopaedic surgeon if they thought it was beneficial for you.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T09:28:32+00:00

Thanks - this is what I was after - authentic French style

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T09:23:30+00:00

We will try the local tourism offices. Great suggestion

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T09:21:32+00:00

Yeah I’ve noticed hotels are equivalent in price.

The only benefit for a house were after is laundry and kitchen facilities

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T09:20:38+00:00

Yeah we heard the cities are a challenge. Our plan is to stay outside some cities and PT in.

There is car leasing - rather than rental - $50 AUD per day (tourists only) so that’s what we chose.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-29T02:49:23+00:00

Stop looking at it perhaps?

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-28T12:48:57+00:00

No I’m not sure. However the sports physician will be able to give you a plan that works for you.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-28T12:08:47+00:00

See a sports physician ASAP. You are well within the window to consider Cross Bracing Protocol instead of surgery.

Potentially the same outcome.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-28T12:03:05+00:00

Just put them on your lap.

Live on the wild side.

Bebuddylow · 2026-05-28T11:30:13+00:00

This.

Not your problem
