My issues were a torn MCL and a torn meniscus.
I have therapy three times a week and stretch and exercise daily. It is a delicate balance of increasing the strength, endurance and agility of the muscle groups above and below the knee without overstressing the ligaments or putting to much pressure or repetition on the meniscus.
We had to back off about a week ago because my recovery time started to increase after therapy instead of decrease.
I am now allowed to walk or ride a bike for 10-15 minutes as a warmup before my exercises. I still cannot run. Projected date for first jog is March 20, a week after the season opens here.
I'm visiting my parents in southern California right now, so I get the please of walking outdoors instead of on my treadmill.
