MCL/Meniscus
Anybody here every have a problem with their MCL or Meniscus? What was the pain like? Recovery? Surgery?
I've been working my balls of 4-5 days a week. Running and sprint work in the AMs and lifting at night. I've been eating right, not drinking alcohol, not doing drugs, and then this thing with my knee happens 2 weeks out from my last rugby tournament as a collegiate rugby player.
In hind sight I should have gotten it checked sooner, but the pain and popping sound went away until yesterday. Yesterday after some drills I was just standing there when my knee just popped and gave out. Inside side of my right leg is where the pain is concentrated. The pain decreases as it passes through to the outside of my knee. The back of my knee is also tender. When my ankle is rotated outwards I get a sharp pain. When my leg is fully extended, I can feel the pressure in the back of my knee. My coach says it's characteristic of an MCL/Meniscus tear. This could be a 1-12 week injury.
Time to go to the hospital and find out what's up.
