Knee sprain
I twisted my knee while playing badminton 2 weeks ago. After that Iam not able to put pressure on my right leg , not able to walk n run. Doctor suggested to wear a knee cap. I wore it, now I am able to walk but still m not able to run or bend my knee completely. Again I consulted orthopaedic doctor and he said my tissue fibre in the knee is broken and he asked to MRI scan. He said if brokage is too much then they might operate me. Iam scared. Please help

First of all don't be panic..
MRI will give you exact injury of ligaments or muscles (which are not seen in normal X-rays)
And if it's grade 1 type( less injury) it can be cured of physiotherapy and without operation.
Next Steps
Perform MRI since pain is not cured in these days
Health Tips
Don't do twisting activities till next treatment
