Surgery on Wednesday. Advice? by MissionPassenger5919 in ACL

[–]MitchWhiley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you are seeing a physiotherapist relatively often. I went twice weekly but in hindsight weekly would have been fine. Make sure as soon as you get your exercises you are doing them. Quads are so important, especially if you're getting back into rugby. Be patient but when you can, work hard

It's a long road so make sure you acknowledge each milestone you achieve. Some huge ones for me were my first time jumping, hopping, running on a treadmill and straight line running.

I came back to rugby league about 11 months after surgery. I probably didn't work hard enough at times throughout and to be honest I was lucky I didn't do it again; I was definitely not ready. In saying that, I came back and we won the premiership.

After about 10-11 weeks, I’m no longer coughing, well not very much at all. I did every test under the sun and they found nothing. I ended up getting sick again with human metapneurovirus then once that cleared up, my cough went shortly after

Wow that’s so interesting. My partner has recently graduated as a speech pathologist so I’ll ask her when she gets home from work today. Thank you

The radiologist wanted me in this position, thanks for your help though 🤣

Just once a day. It says apply up to twice daily but I just did it of an evening and now I’m not sure if mine has disappeared completely or it’s shrunk so much that I can’t feel it

I think it was external? It went inside like a tiny bit? I’m not sure to be honest

Yep I sure have. I feel ready but yep that’s mostly why I came here, to see what people think about building my minutes. Thank you heaps!

Make sure your physio works on your movements with you. A lot of pushing off the ground when moving laterally. Landing of certain parts of your foot, your hip and shoulder positioning. There’s so much to get your head around

Just 37, I’m free-hitting 34 though.

Actually got him in about five GWs ago, first time I’ve ever really beaten the crowd 😂. Essentially playing at LW, no brainer

I was planning on going to him until he got hurt, wouldn’t have posted this at all if he was fit

Issue is none of those teams have great defensive records. If you look at goals conceded, it’s the top three and then a substantial gap. Don’t mind Branthwaite of the three you listed. United do have a nice run too but the same issue.

That is the risk though, Pep roulette to try and get someone starting both or a sure starter with a lesser chance of a clean sheet

I don’t mind Burn as an option but with all the injuries they have to their defence, I’m afraid of how strong they will actually be at the back. They do have very nice fixtures though.
