L Knee, Ligament tear
2013-01-16 – 2013-07-01
Grade: 3
have to admit to myself that the little niggle in my left knee is now of injury status...having done some quick research i dont think its iliofemoral syndrome or ligamental but shall let Casey have a look next week. till then, plenty of RIC to see what can be done about next weeks training.
was never diagnosed officially (Physio thought it might be but needs X-ray or US to be sure) but almost certain it was a MCL tear. most likely caused from some decidedly dodgy descending in the snow. bad luck i suppose. at least i know what ligament pain now feels like and will rest earlier and for longer if it happens again (which i hope it wont). must just remember not to be stupid about it and rest properly with 3/4 weeks pain free before returning to slow gentle runs.
