Michael Miller 35 years old, Male Left knee grade 3 anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) sprain |
| Initial diagnosis | Left knee grade 3 anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) sprain. |
| Diagnosis made by | physical exam, MRI, CT |
| Chief complaint | I am a active individual. About a third of the time I play, my knee will buckle, causing severe pain. Within minutes, the pain lapses and I am then able to continue playing. I can run, walk, and cycle with no pain at all. I even trail run for about 20 miles a week in the mountains. I would prefer to avoid surgery, but am worried about causing permanent damage to my knee. |
