Horrible knee pain
A while ago I had an ACL injury but it wasn't bad dnough for sugery so I went to pt once a week and just used a brace for a month. Recently (about a week ago) I've had the same sort of pain and instability but this time it is unbearable I have some crutches from my earlier injury that Ive been using. Im kinda nervous, I think I may have torn it.

Dear,
Please visit an Orthopedician or a Sports Surgeon for clinical assessment. You might also need an mri to assess the degree of tear.
Kindly do not neglect the Injury. The treatment for one ligament injuries has advanced very much. Most people return to very good activity after treatment.
Hope that helps,

Visit a surgeon who has operated. Protect your leg . By brace . Repeat mri May be necessary . But your problem can be because of weak quadriceps
