Hey I know you’re probably not going to see this but it’s worth trying. About 6 months ago I hyper extended my knee playing football before the season had started (sophomore yr.) Two months later and I finally get my MRI. They had diagnosed me with A grade l sprain of the MCL and Mild tendinosis in my patellar and quadricep tendon. Till this day I’m having a lot of pain still. All I need to know is how to treat it but I still can’t seem to grasp how to, even after searching on KZbin and google. You’re literally the only person I can think of who would most likely know how to treat this. I’m going insane not being able to squat, deadlift, power clean, etc.. because of this pain. It would be a pleasure if you could make a video about it and how to treat it 🙏

[@juncruz3685]

talk to your doctor dont ask for answers in the internet youtube or google

[@iwantmoney10]

Progressive knee rehabilitation is key(isometric, concentric, eccentric, proprioception and finally sport mimic-ing), also seek some manual therapy to start, soft tissue therapy to affected muscles such as the quadriceps, popliteus, gastrocnemius and soleus may help with pain to encourage safe and effective exercise rehab. Knee joint mobilization and acupuncture helped me personally as well. Stay strong my guy, I was in a similar situation, with the help of a team of therapists including sports chiropractors, physios and massage therapists, I was able to come back better than ever and compete at a high lever again in my sport. 🙏

[@brln7089]

jun cruz lol if my insurance wasn’t terrible. Tried asking for physical therapy for 2 months now and the authorization hasn’t gone through everything time according to them. Also I just thought it’d be a good idea to get multiple perspectives on how to help this injury so I know what’s best

[@brln7089]

iwantmoney10 thanks man i appreciate you taking your time to help me out

[@brln7089]

German Sgt Major Riflemen yeah but it was only for a split second. If anything though I think it was more of the way I landed from my jump that affected it so much. I was sort of having my momentum go backwards while in the air trying to grab the ball. Also I didn’t mention but when I went to go see my results with a different radiologist he said that there could have been some meniscus tear but he wasn’t sure because I got the MRI two months after the injury.

Can you do a video about Joe Theismann’s leg injury and how similar it is to Alex Smith’s ? The coincidence surrounding those two injuries is chilling. It ended Theismann’s career but do you think it will end Smith’s ?

[@deeptime5581]

The anecdotal outcomes for Achilles ruptures for NBA players are not good omens for Durant. The only player to come back without any obvious effect was Dominique Wilkins. Age is also a factor and Durant will be 31. As was noted in the video, the springiness of the leg depends on the coiling of the tissue. The ruptures usually results in a shortening and stiffness of the tissue. The kinematic chain between the foot, knee, hip, etc is affected, which is why Kobe had to retire due to knee issues which was actually a result of the previous Achilles tendon tear. In other words, Durant will now be vulnerable to a host of injuries on that leg. One solution is that he changes his style of play and becomes more of a 3 point shooter and doesn't slash to the basket. Rudy Gay had the same injury and is a good example of that adjustment. I am not a doctor though I do work with bodies. I think an essential problem with this injury is rushing back the player too early as the Lakers are trying to do with Cousins.

[@ddh540]

I’m curious if there is a way to mitigate any risk of injury to the Achilles’ tendon? Could surgery be performed to reinforce these tendons? I have heard anecdotal accounts that the tendon almost certainly will not tear again once it’s repair has been effected via reconstructive surgery. If this is the case, why not just perform preventive surgeries on athletes who are most at risk for this type of injury? Great videos!!

[@stompingpeak2043]

Because nothing works as good once you mess with it. Kd will never be a full 100%. He might be 98% but this injury will take something away. Same goes for athletes that get surgery on any injury.

[@ddh540]

Stomping Peak I was talking preventive surgery as opposed to the restorative type.

[@stompingpeak2043]

@@ddh540 also you don't fix what isn't broken unless it's a 100% sure thing. Doctors don't want to cause harm to someone that's perfectly healthy. The odds are you will go your whole life without the injury you are trying to prevent so it's not worth the risk.
