Looking at information on WebMD, there's a chance of PCL injury.

What types of injuries have occurred to you or that you've seen occur to others?
I've seen others who started threads like this mysteriously disappear, never to be heard of or seen again by the living.

Just saying......

I had a torn lateral Meniscus but I treated it with Glucosamine and Chondroitin and it's been fine.

It was a small tear.

I go in tomorrow to have a Computerized Axial Tomography Scan to see if a more detailed diagnosis can be done/seen.

Concerning Glucosamine/Chondroitin, I've been taking Osteo Bi-Flex Triple Strength. Unfortunately for me though, it's been getting harder for me to go up & down stairs/bleachers.

I tore my lateral meniscus whilst I was in football 7 years ago. Had to get a X-rays and an MRI to confirm. Finally had to get a partial meniscectomy by way of arthroscopic surgery. Put me out 3 weeks. Knee only acts up occasionally. Found that doing barbell squats as definitely helped strengthen the knee.
