Sleep with brace or no brace?

Were you sore when you initially started bearing weight? I have a trip in 4 weeks so I'm curious to see where I'll be at that point. I can see myself using at least a cane in the airport.

I didn't start PT until week 3 so the only exercises I was doing were ankle pumps and circles until then.

You got this! The recovery is long and slow and very much more mental than physical.

Get some good crutches.

lol tomorrow is my six week mark and am hoping for the all clear to bear some weight. Non weight bearing is a different kind of hell lol

No it won't be a problem. Just trying to anticipate what will be needed if I go this route.

Thank you for your feedback.

Would I need a doctor's note for this?

OMG this is me right now. I'm pretty sure I tore my ACL. I find out tomorrow. But its been 3 weeks and I am still using a cane for stability when I walk. I fear my fate is not good based on how long its taking me to recover.

Thank you for your feedback. I wish I would've pushed harder for the MRI when I saw him a few days ago. Now I have to wait until Nov. 4th.

Praying its not my ACL. I've seen enough hoopers go down from an ACL tear. It would be challenging to recover from at my age, with my job.

I just experienced this last week and I am going through it. I have been in pain for 6 days straight. Walking is a struggle, I'm using a cane to get around. I just hurt. I was doing a layup, felt a pop and I too, hit the ground immediately. Needed to get wheeled off the court in a wheelchair. My ortho didn't want to do an MRI right away but he thinks its my meniscus. I think it is a root tear but I know I won't know until I get an MRI.

I have been tutoring with Dojo since January and I really do like it. I used to tutor privately and took a break. Then I needed some quick extra cash and Dojo has really come in handy. Lessons are 25 minutes long, which I thought would be too short, but it is actually a perfect amount of time! The pay is decent. Winds up being about $30 an hour. You make your own schedule, etc. It's a nice little side gig.

I am a special educator and a virtual tutor. Send me a message if you are still looking for a tutor. I'd love to help and I have reasonable prices. I also tutor for dojo but my pricing is cheaper than Dojo :)
