Thanks!
Hey thanks again for kind words and advice!
I just went to the Orthopedist yesterday, he believes it to be an torn MCL, but he said he couldn't tell me the full extent of the tear because he couldn't get a fully accurate physical examination because I was too sore and too swollen. I have to go back in a week for further testing. He said that by then the swelling and tenderness will have subsided enough to do a more comprehensive exam.
As someone mentioned above, he also told me that the MCL is the only ligament in the knee that can heal and mend on its own and does not always require surgery, so maybe I'll luck out.
I'm sorry to hear that there are many others here that have done the same thing to their knees. I wish you all the best of luck with your injuries as well!
I'll try to keep updating as I hear and experience more.
Thanks again everyone!
-Tim
