North Buffalo Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 I am a CT and xray tech and have seen a lot of them. Docs can tell/know pretty quickly by manipulation if there is a tear. CT and MRI confirm and can tell severity. They came out pretty quickly that it wasnt. Just because a brace, precautionary, helps keep swelling down which can cause more damage. Just because a brace lol. So everyone with a brace like that has an mcl tear, lol. he/she did and got a brace. Reminded me of the monte python sketch. If it floats it must a duck and thus made of wood and therefore a witch.... burn her. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was 19 at the time. Simce then, not one issue except minor arthritis when it gets humid. Of course, I am no longer a cut and plant athlete but, to this day, remain very active. The amazing PT tore both ACL’s playing line at UCF. Never had surgery and still remains very active with things that fit, like mountain biking. My son feels it a bit in certain circumstances like sitting on a bar stool and letting it hang for a while (not that he spends hours sitting on bar stools! Haha). Yeah, it will never be “the same’, but the surgery and abilities now are incredible! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the scans that are used are only to confirm what the physical test said, to give EXACT locations of the tears so the surgical intervention can be planned, or to explore and see since they are stumped. Just "seeing him in a brace" doesn't confirm ACL, but you know, obviously, since MAJbobby had an ACL tear and had the same brace, this MUST be an ACL, obviously. 1 hour ago, Augie said: The amazing PT tore both ACL’s playing line at UCF.

Glad to hear your son is feeling good! I love my job, and i love rehabbing knees. It boggles my mind when people on this board try to argue with me (or other professionals) about things that they know nothing about. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After a visit to Dr. Romanowski, a couple holes above the knee, a scar in front/back of knee and weeks of grueling PT and I was back doing my Uncle Drew.

JESSEFEFFER Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 Not sure if anyone agrees, and they only showed the replay once without any comment on the Bills broadcast but I thought Kyle was a victim of an egregious, unpenalyzed chop block. It would be a shame to have a career like his to end on a play like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they just sit him out the rest of pre-season and maybe even week 1, they have Phillips to take over his role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelly the Dog Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 At first I thought this was just the title of the sequel to the great French new wave auteur director Eric Rohmer's 1971 masterpiece, "Claire's Knee."

GoBills808 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 9 hours ago, 26CornerBlitz said: If he's listed as week to week there's either no structural damage (could have torn up some meniscus, bone-on-bone bruising, any of the ligaments stretching but not tearing, etc) OR he tore something that both he and the docs feel he can play on with pain/swelling management and no risk of further damage. Most importantly it probably means no surgery required, which is what drags the recovery timeline out wrt knee injuries. Awesome news if true.
