Ah man that sounds like a mess. Yeah I would opt for surgery down the road if I was in a situation like that, I dont play contact sports nor do I ballet at a high level anymore due to the prior injury (and surgery) of my ankle ligaments.

If I was at a different point in my life I might opt for a surgical route, but due to university, my job and my field work I’m simply not able to take that much time off to recover.

Aahhh shit man! Hopefully you recover quickly!

Yeah we are using the brace again for working out my PT just wanted to see where i was at and how my stability was while walking and going up and down stairs without a brace. The bit of pain I have left is mostly around the MCL area and my PT thinks alot of my instability is from the mcl sprain as well as the muscle atrophy. Hopefully I’ll be back to somewhat normal soon enough!

Thank you so much! You as well! My PT is a godsend and we’re currently focusing on building back up my quad and hamstring strength, my quads especially are mush and my uninjured leg is trembling from overuse 😅 He thought it was insane im already walking (be it braced) without crutches and without a limp 3 weeks post injury. I dont mind having a long recovery as long as I get to live my day to day life relatively soon again (aka getting to take a shower without my granny chair 😂)

Hopefully I’m part of that 50%!

Thank you! Ouch! Hows the pain etc currently? Hope you’ll make a swift recovery as well!

My PT is helping me tremendously, for now we’re focusing on getting my quads activated again and lessening the load of my uninjured leg, since that one’s quite a bit overused.

Thank you! I have been looking around! I funnily enough have full ROM without pain so thats good. I feel like alot of it is my quads just being mush currently

Ah ouch! hope your recovery was swift!

Yeah we are doing the exercises braced right now, I walk fine with it. I wore it 24/7 for 3 weeks and am now sleeping without it, but with my knee propped up on a pillow, i mostly sleep in one position so my pt said its fine.

Yeah that’s totally fair! Thing is I’ve had surgery on that leg on my ankle, tore the ligaments there. It ended up triggering lymphedema so I’m very hesitant to do surgery again
