torn knee


Question Posted Thursday August 7 2008, 8:25 pm

I've got a bad knee. I guess I've hyper-extended it and now it's like the ligaments have been stretched. I did see an ER doctor when it first happened but I never was really diagnosed. I actually tore it showing out for my friends. I picked the back end up of a Ford Focus when I got hurt. Yeah, LOL I actually got it up about 4 inches before my left knee gave out. Now, the problem is, if I walk to much or even put all of my weight on it, it just pops right out of socket! Oh gees, what excruciating pain! I'm pretty scared of causing too much stress on it. I don't have $$$ for a knee operation either. I occasionally wear a hinged knee brace on it. My question is, what type of work out can I do to strengthen my knee up and what type of brace can I wear to prevent my knee from dislocating? Thanks a bunch!

This is something sorta medical and I am not really qualified to give you good advice on it. Basic exercises such as lunges and airsquats will help strength the Patella, but as far as what kind of special brace to wear or fixing the dislocated knee- I can't really say I know much.
