Knee Injury High grade partial ACL tear
Hello doctor,
I had a injury in November, went to consult an ortho but he wrongly diagnosed without any scans saying no injury just a knock will get recover within six weeks. Trusting that I started my routine taking care of my knee. But suddenly after six weeks my knee locked up while standing up but before that I started walking normally post four weeks if injury there was just light pain. But since after knee locking my knee has become stiff still after almost six weeks my knee is still stiff and I literally limp while walking. Please suggest me what to do to go back to normal life.
My MRI reads,
Hugh grade partial tear
Grade two signal intensity in posterior horn of medial meniscus
Grade 2 sprain in LCL
Mildly depressed subchondral fracture on lateral femoral condyle
Undisplaced fracture on posterior aspect of lateral tibial plateau.
Please guide.
