Tore ACl, MCL, Lateral meniscus, and medial meniscus

Wow that is alot of stuff.  I tore my ACL, and recovery is usually 6 months until you can participate in normal activities again, but about a year until you are back 100%.  You may be longer seeing as it looks like you took a toll on your knee.  I know what you are going through, I get surgery on thursday, which will be about 6 weeks post injury.  Of course I slipped and fell the other night trying to avoid snowballs being thrown at me and its swollen back up again, but I'm pretty sure I didn't tear anything else.  vibes man

I tore my ACL, MCL, and lateral meniscus back in September. Scheduled my surgery for December, and in the meantime I took it easy to let the swelling go down (swelling+surgery=nono) and MCL heal (mine was a grade 2/3 tear).

Depending on the severity of your MCL tear, it may be left to heal without surgery (seriously though, take it easy, you don't want it healing loose). ACL will be operated on, and the doctor will probably trim/stitch/do whatever needs to be done with your cartilage then too.

A grade 2 (half of fibers torn) MCL tear can as little as 6 weeks to heal, but the ACL rehab is going to be the bulk of your recovery. The MCL, lateral meniscus and medial meniscus injuries shouldn't make your ACL recovery significantly longer than the typical 6 months, if any extra time at all. In the end though, it's down to how fast your body heals and how much you put into the rehab. It won't be any less than 4 months at the VERY MINIMUM (3 months = new ACL is weakest).

yea my MCL is a grade 2 tear.. Thankx man ^^

Holy shit what did you do?

Well i hurt it 270 disaster, then hurt it on a huge drop landing back seat, then fell in gym class.. I should have given it more time to heal but im dumb and had to learn the hard way

Oh ok, I thought it might have been like one massive injury. Gym class is pretty intense.
