Thank you doc!

Thanks. I think I have torn it while doing jumping jacks in the gym back in November 2022. No relief so far, I'm a volleyball player and the moment I enter the court, it starts to hurt. I don't know what to do..

@nitinjaiswal7224, Sorry for the delay. I'm sorry to hear about your injury and I hope you have found a physician to evaluate your knee. If you have not, I would highly recommend you seek out an ortho surgeon to take a look to make sure you are good to go. _________________________________________________________________________ Please understand that this does not represent the formation of a formal doctor patient relationship and is for educational purposes only.
