That's so weird, I had a full ACL replacement and MCL repair, and had no casts or anything. I went with the cadaver replacement and was off crutches within 2 weeks.



Good luck with the healing!

Stick to it! My doc never sent me to physical therapy after my femur crushed my tib two surgeries and a screw put in and taken out. Luckily my sister has her phd in physical therapy and gave me some pointers. Still havent walked the same since.

I stuffed my knee back when i was 10. Done it multiple times since then also hahaha.



But i also had to use the same kind of Knee brace setup. No cast.



KEEP IT ON! I took mine off to go sit in the pool in summer(im in Australia, so i needed to cool off haa). My crutches slipped on the wet, went down and ****ed my knee. back to Square one. All the weeks of Physio to waste.



Make sure you do your Physio also. And when they give you excersises......do them.



You can come out with a Wrecked leg for life, OR come out back to normal. Just depends on how much work you put in at Home.

surgery is no fun... and neither is being in a cast haha. i separated and broke my 1st metatarsal from the joint and had it screwed back in place. i've been on crutches for like 6 weeks. it blows so bad haha but only 2 1/2 weeks to go thank god. and definently keep that brace on if you wanna come out normal.

I was on crutches for 3 months. No joke. I got to the point where I literally walked 3/4 a mile before my shoulders gave out without touching my feet on the ground as if I were on stilts. Try that, helps make the healing process fun, just watch it going down stairs, up stairs isnt bad lol.



Custom paint your crutches and slap some stickers on there, makes the process not that bad.. annnddd eat them goodies from the doc. makes ya :))

Jw was you wearing knee pads when you crashed?? I know i tore up my knee when i was 12 bc i didn't wear them, now im 24 back on minis and i'm not wearing them... seein ur pics makes me think twice about knee pads nows. Broken bones aren't that bad, surgery... yea it sucks, you feel worse after surgery then before!
