Bad timing - bad day! Not that there is a good time for this but the little lady is due with our child on the 28th of this month and on limited bed rest and this am i tore my acl AND my mcl! I was woirking in the yard and we have a small retaining wall - i stepped back and off the wall...my right foot stayed on the wall and my knee proceed to go about 16 inches below the wall and my right foot. I felt it immediately and when i got up i went to walk and my knee totally buckled and my knee went inward and my foot stayed out. Just got back from hospital and apprently the wall incident tore mcl and the buckling tore acl. I have level 2 tears in both - said im very lucky given the incident neither was a complete tear. Anyway enough rambling - my question: IIRC from my PT cert long ago Three stage recovery - RICE then Stretching then strength. Prob 6-8 week recovery. Any thoughts , inpout , suggestions?
