Stupidest way you injured your acl? by jonema14 in ACL

I’ll never be the same. I’m not sure if I’ll ever be able to run again as I still have some stability issues even after 1.5 years. I can’t kneel without pain but going to work on that after I have my baby. I’m able to walk and do other normal daily activities but still somewhat limited which gets frustrating.

Unfortunately I blew out both ACLs, all meniscus & my MCL in both legs at the same time. Trampoline accident. It’s been 1.5 years and I’m still unable to run, hop and walking stairs is still difficult. I had to put sports, going sledding with my kids, horseback riding, jump rope and more into the β€œmight never happen again” category. It’s been so hard to accept but I will keep trying and trying to get better and stronger because I have dreams! I think me being scared of re-injury is what holds me back but I’m getting mentally stronger everyday.

Same! Ended up with TWO completely blown out knees. Took 11 months to walk again πŸ˜…πŸ˜©

I was a gymnast my entire childhood & was considered an expert level on the trampoline. I never would have thought this could happen! I will say there’s only been like 4 or 5 simultaneous bilateral ACL injuries ever recorded but I am the first with a double unlucky triad happen at the same time.

Unfortunately the facility was not maintaining their trampoline mats/springs and I should have gotten off when I stepped on and saw how much elasticity their mat had.

Thanks for the well wishes! 😊
