hello,
I am a soccer player and i have injury complications...... well my story begins around nov 2009 when i was playing in the morning, i went for the ball when it was in the air i was standing on one leg(ie my left leg, the leg which is injured now) when suddenly i felt pain on my patellar tendon region it was swollen i saw a ortho and he told me to take rest and go for ift and ust treatment and i did just just that..... One month passed and i came to play again this time when i kicked the ball i felt like my leg(same left leg) just tore from the inside.... i went to another ortho this time he took scans some ultra sonic scan or something and told me that my median Wikipedia reference-linkmeniscus had been torn grade 2 and didnt require surjury he told me to take 6 weeks rest and i followed. Then i came back to play after there was no pain and started by jogging, i eventually started lapping 3200 metres and then is when i got the similar pain which i got in november 2009 but there was no much swelling but severe pain i couldnt walk i couldnt climb steps so i went to a physio that my mom sudjusted they greatly reduced the pain but every time i play the pain returned to the physio told me to meet another ortho and told me that he was a sports ortho and that he would do me good.... i met him and he told me to take an Wikipedia reference-linkmri scan... i did that and that reports showed that my meniscus had torn and that my patellar tendon had sustained damage the sports ortho then told me to take 2 months rest and do some exercises that he taught(some exercise similar to squats) and to come to visit him after that he also told me that he thinks, that the meniscus is not torn but degenerated i dont know the difference though.... i am waiting for 2 months now.... so i wish to humbly ask if anyone out there has encountered an injury similar to mine.... please advice!! it would be much appreciated..
