[QUOTE="CDA, post: 46434, member: 103"] So I cruised by my Sports doctor today and here is the verdict. First off, I need to apologize for my knee misinformation. The MCL is different than the Meniscus:prof: I have damaged my MCL on the upper side of the knee. This will heal on its own and will not require surgery:banana:. I have a cool knee brace with metal swivel side supports that I need to wear for the next couple weeks. In 2 weeks I go back and see him. If no improvement, then we MRI to see if the Meniscus is torn, which then would require surgery (same dealio Geekster had) :( Tugging, pulling and x-rays show that I have good knees. He did ask if I dislocated my right knee before since it is not centered. I have always had an issue with this knee when I waterski or sit too long. Turns out that I was born with an odd shaped knee cavity that pushes my knee cap off center. No big deal, just need to walk around the planes more on my long trips to China... So looks promising. He did say that to completely heal the MCL takes up to 6 months :shocked:, but I can use it. So we will see what comes about over the next few weeks. [/QUOTE]
