di3s3l_pow3r Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 Dude, wait. I had the same ankle sprain from basketball where my ankle ballooned 6 years ago. I force to play on it after 4 weeks. Ever since then my ankle has never been the same. Its been tender and weaker. So take as much time as possible, don't rush it. thanks for the warning dude!hope yours will get well soon also. :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment

geneticfreak Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 had a couple recently two weeks ago. accidentally sat on my ankle (ala Crocop when he was KO'd by Gabriel Gonzaga in their UFC fight) severe sprain. I have one now. Blunt Force Trauma to my left delt. Shot in for the takedown. Lifted the person I was taking down he slipped and his face fell on my shoulder. His Lips were busted but my shoulder now hurts like hell. Good thing it's already the weekend. Got a couple of days to rest it before training again on Monday. Quote Link to comment
complicated8 Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 (edited) partially torn ACL on my left knee Goodbye Basketball how did you verify this? I blew out my knee in a game around 3 weeks ago, couldn't walk for 2 days. Got anti-inflammatory meds; both Ortho surgeons who evaluated me said it's an ACL tear (90% sure daw). Did you get an MRI? I was requested to have this but I don't have insurance and surgery na lang daw solution. i tried to play again two saturdays ago, was ok naman, mild play of course it's a far cry from the way i usually play and am being extra careful. I tried again last thursday and I hurt my knee again. Now, it's worse.. is it really goodbye basketbal? my teammate who had ACL surgery on his knee told me that it couldn't be ACL coz I could still run just after two weeks. I hope that physiotherapy will be enough. otherwise, it's surgery coz I feel like I can't say goodbye to basketball. Edited July 28, 2008 by complicated8 Quote Link to comment
[U2] Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Judo: Broken collarbone. Body usually hurts after training but what really helps is a good massage (not the hanky-panky type). Good thing I am just a stone's throw away from a good spa. Quote Link to comment

The legs are one of the sturdiest parts of the human body, imagine the pounding they take from day to day. So the fact you couldn't walk for two days means they're banged up oretty good. If you love the game so much then what's best, get an MRI and if it says ACL tear, surgery won't be far behind (if you still want to play). And for God's sake, lay-off the knee for a while. Better be prepared though, if you do get surgery you would have to say goodbye to basketball for at least a year. Sorry but that's just how things are. :thumbsdownsmiley: Quote Link to comment
complicated8 Posted August 8, 2008 Share Posted August 8, 2008 I know pre. have had two weeks of physiotherapy. the knee is getting stronger just not sure how strong; the therapist thinks i don't need the surgery. I hope so too. To avoid the costs, etc. But lets see. I met someone who had knee surgery and he said his knee is as strong if not stronger but he still isn't playing since January. A year is really a long time to wait to get back to playing. Quote Link to comment

gift_of_game Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 ankles are brittle and don't heal particularly well. for really bad, bad sprains, we can't really expect to get the same level of function afterward.it's just the nature of the beast. as for complicated8's knee, I hope that you're following the Shawne Merriman case (although obviously, he's got it worse...PCL palang katay na). the problem with knee injuries like that is that joint stability is obviously compromised. it won't bother you as much now (I actually had a classmate whose torn ACL was neglected from high school through college...his knee looked a bit weird, even funny) but it will be an even bigger issue down the road.
