ACL


Question Posted Wednesday April 11 2007, 9:29 pm

okay, so im hollisterlover09. and if you didnt know, i tore my ACL back in june, but had surgery two months later. iv been released since feb.15th.. and iv been doing gymnastics since then. well yesterday i went running to get into shape for basketball this summer. and after my hamstring hurt really bad, i thought it was b/c i hadnt ran in a long time like that. so tonight i went to gymnastics and need a back handspring, it was fine, then did another one and my knee hurt. so now when i straighten it, i have this pain like on the outside of my knee towards the top. its numb when i touch it and my hamstring hurts to.

so i was wondering, could i of torn my ACL again?. cause i know if you jump, and land with your knees straight, something will happen, but i didnt land with my knees straight.
or could i of just like pulled something from yesterday?.. please help ASAP..

Tearing your ACL is normally a permanent injury. it's ruined the sports careers of many athletes in all levels.

Are you sure you're even supposed to be back in sports?

if you are allowed to be back in sports, the pain is normal. Since it was such a bad injury to begin with, the pain will always be there when you exercise. I doubt you pulled your acl again but I also doubt the pain will go away.

Hi hollisterlover09.

My guess would be that since you had not done these exercises in a while (and put this kind of stress on these muscles and joints) it may be what is causing the pain as you do need to get into this kind of thing gradually especially after an accident and not having done it in a while.

However, I would strongly advise that you seek advice from your doctor about this. He will be able to advise you on a more professional level as well as give you advise on how fast you should be getting back into this routine of yours.
