    MRI report says Torn ACL, Torn Cartlidge and a Fracture...

    NO pain at all?
    why is this, and i can run, is this wierd>?
    everyone complains of pain but i got none.

    i get pain from both legs, knees i mean when i stand or walk around for heaps long and the obvious because of my injury if i bend the knee too much; caused by the cartlidge tear, but i can run, but i can run!!!

    tell you the truth im scared!

    i got the before and after shots of my legs, my right leg has lost dramatic size on it from the injury

    are you set for surgery to repair the acl yet?

    bartender, my first ACL tear hurt like a mofo! And the stupid Dr. I first saw said it was just a sprain (i got to the emergency clinic about 5 mins before they closed, i was really pissed). After 3 weeks of not being able to walk, I went to another doctor and he said without a doubt it was torn acl, even before the MRI. A year later, I tore my other ACL, it hurt when I did it, but after a day it didn't hurt. You actually dont *have* to get surgery. You can live without it, but you wont be able to do sports. Well, a friend of mine did not have surgery and hes actually playin basketball now, so its not impossible, but if you have insurance, id say just get the surgery. Im glad I did.
