(Saturday)After many hours of internet reading I decided to try some exercises on it. I did sitting leg lifts and some half squats. I tried the stairs a bit with some luck. Felt pretty good actually. In fact all day Saturday it felt relatively good.
(Sunday)-I tried to go swimming. That sucked. I was pretty bummed. As soon as I dangle my feet and try to do some slow kicks, it feels like its hanging there. Kinda like only the left side of my leg has anything attached to it. Really creepy.
Normal walking doesn't seem to bother it too much. So I've been trying to flex the quad muscle a lot more while walking. Basically to build it back up. And taking stairs very carefully.
It feels stiff today. And it has locked a few times. That is either the potential meniscus damage or the patella slipping out of place. Not sure but both are potentially a problem. Hopefully everything will be answered when I go back to the Doc...
I just hope that the physical therapy is the long term answer rather than sort term.
I don't want surgery.
