MCL injury question??
« on: October 13, 2014, 07:23:06 PM »
Hi guys,

I injured my MCL approx 8 weeks ago and I started physio about 2 weeks ago. I feel like the knee is stable and strong. I can run with minimal pain however I know I am still not ready to return to football. The problem I'm having is with a resistance band and bending my knee (foot to bum) the pain is terrible. I don't feel like the pain is directly above the MCL more below and above the original injury site. It feels tight on bending and not getting better.

I just wondered if anyone else has suffered with this and had any advice?

Hi all,

Still really struggling with this, any advice would be welcomed?

You should really see the physiotherapist for advice before doing any sport :)  Especially if still have pain
