Can you do the squats if there is minor pain?

bro i got kneed while playing basketball. i got a nutmeg but got stuck on his knee. it’s the next day and it still hurts , never had a dead leg this long bruh😹

Thank you

Was looking on the internet after getting crunched in the thigh by someones knee in my football game. I can't bend my knee more than 45 degrees, should I go and see a physio. It's been more than 4 days.

Thank you so so much for this video! I had a Bakers Cyst and I keep thinking that the pain behind my leg was the Bakers Cyst. After seeing this, I think. It is the PCL.

Thank you. Great vid. Just starting my journey on becoming qualified as a Sports massage therapist. This was really helpful. Best wishes.

Hurts my LCL during a sparring session. Although it does not swell or bruise, it hurts pretty suck. Thanks a lot for the informative video

My hyperextension was pretty minor, I did it on my left leg on leg press - was accompanied by a little bit of pain when squatting ass to grass. Fast forward a year I'm very off balance when walking now, because ever since the injury I changed the way I walked. Left knee extends further back when locked out. 0 pain though. Problem is I bare so much weight on my right leg and barely any on left.

I played football and I got LCL tear, but I can walk with no problem only when i switch sides or put weight on it.I don't know how I got it ,I go to the gym and I squat a lot with heavy weight pushing my self , and how a small move I've hurt my knee I don't get it .!

GOD this is the best video!! Literally told everything i wanted to know! So much informative. Bless You

So, after Bhs, in sport you vent to master physiotherapy? Or after foundation in sport got to physio firs year?

Video is concise and informative as usual, thank you Hopkins!!! 🔥🔥

Great video using after sore knee from car crash

Appreciate this a lot

Advice for rehab if you have pcl tear along with mcl tear?

Great video

Are these exercises helpful even without a normal range of motion? I'm 9 days post fall (fell backwards, sprained elbow and wrist), can't fully sttaighten arm yet. Hoping these exercises help along with light stretching. Thank you.

Tore my PCL in feb of 2023. recently minor re-injury to it but couldnt remember all my exercises. this helps!

For everybody wondering how bad it really is, it isn’t bad at all. If it is a small hyperextension, first few days, may hurt bit. After that, you should be fine (if you take proper care) now, if it is major, might wanna go to the doctor. This kind of exercise may help a tiny bit. But you should definitely listen to what the doctor’s recommendations are. When I first hyperextended my knee, I thought it was going to be really bad. Turns out, it wasn’t! Like I said, first few days, may hurt a bit, after that, you should be fine. Do not worry!

Can’t wait for the return

This is the most helpful and information video. Thank a lot. I've been searching in several videos bug not explained this well. I fell down the stairs and thos happened on my knee ligament. So painful. Doctors dont explain this much. Was tokd to rest 3 to 4 day and gave crutches to help walk. It's been over a week and pain still there but swelling has gone. Tried to do regular chores but hard to get up from floor. Will defo try these exercises 👍

I was doing squats earlier. I think i dropped down too quick and heard a kind loud pop. Did 3 more reps of 135. Racked, checked knee then did 8 more reps. It doesnt hurt. But it does feel kind of numb. Do you think i tore my lcl?

Thank you 🙏🏽

was playing football and twisted my left knee to the right while it was planted, felt a funny sensation on the outside. The next day, my knee was really swollen, made crunching sounds when it was partially bent as well as felt like it was giving way/ instability. A&E told me my latera meniscus was torn so this is really good for general info appreciate it

What! 5:26 if you can do that without falling, you have already recovered.

I got an LCL while playing soccer in December 2022. 1 month later, I had an accident while recovering and I aggravated the injury. In fact, the re-injury was way painful than the first. I started full recovery and started all the exercises to improve my knee strength and return to full fitness. After about 8 months, the pain was completely gone and I started jogging and I could even do sprints without any restrictions. I returned to the pitch for a couple of weeks, but when I went for a tackle, i heard my knee shift again. I'm back to square one again and I'm going to go go through all the exercises outlined in your video. I know my injury belongs to the Grade 3 and I'll be more careful to get back to full fitness. I do love Soccer a lot. I'm going to also get a knee brace to begin using when I return to the pitch. Is waiting for a year adequate enough to get me back to fitness?

How many times a week should we do these exercises? Daily?

Thanks bro 👍

Hi. I came across this video because I had my LCL done as well just 2 and a half weeks ago from basketball when I was doing the euro step. My recovery has been great lately, and there are times where if I walk in a specific position I’d feel my knees tweak a little bit so I have to limp to get to my destination. The balance floor I can’t quite do yet because I feel like that my knee is going to give up so I don’t do that exercise. Should I avoid any exercises until I can kind of be a bit more mobile? I’m trying to be patient cause I just want to walk properly and fast again😂

😢 l woke up yesterday morning and l injured my elbow the back of it. 😢 l can't do exercise yet caz it hurt and l can't stretch my arm fully yet. I'll for a couple of days if gets worse I'll see my GP. I am putting muscle cream spray on it. Let's see how it goes. 😊

Can I email you or call u on the phone ig sometime

I am 10 days into a pretty bad contusion. When should I begin stretching? It's too painful right now.

Can I continue Powerlifting? After recovery

Great video! Thanks for the help

I need some advice, so I am starting a sports therapy undergrad course this September but I’m now very hesitant in this degree since the job opportunities with this degree is very little. Would you recommend taking a gap year (I’m 20 btw for context I took my college course late and got DDM) and apply for physiotherapy courses for next year or do this sports therapy course and apply for a masters in physiotherapy after?

This has been sooooo helpful. Thank you. ❤

I heard a really loud snap in my knee while playing guard in BJJ and I felt my shin bone slip a bit. There was almost no pain and little swelling but it’s very unstable and weak 10 days after…hoping for grade 2 🫠

can i do this exercise sir? its been 4 weeks since i spraned my elbow due to basketball and still have pain when i try to bend and extend my elbow

I pulled ACL from femur. The doctor want me to try rehab for spontaneous regeneration of ACL. Can you recommend some execercises?

How about releasing an old dead leg that never got treated and now it's just tight muscle knot?

I'm almost positive I have an lcl sprain for atleast 8 or 9 months now. It happened during football season after a huge hit to the knee and its moving but there is no pain is they're anything I should be doing to keep it from moving when I bend my leg?

I hyperextended my knee and I literally can't do any of these exercises bc I cannot straighten my knee out. Is this for right after injury, or like weeks later??

Could you possibly list the exercises on the comments. I was injured in a car accident just over a week ago. And an elbow sprain is one of the injuries i sustained. But i don't have the money to see a Physical Therapist. I have however got it ruled out on tears and breaks. Thanks!

I never had swelling despite I sprained my LCL and also I had a small partial tear on my ACL and meniscus. But just really minor ones. Yet it never really swelled.

I had a LCL injury and its been 2-3 months and it sometimes wants to give out on me but its weird thats only happens when im playing football but not basketball but only when I need accelerate my speed or make cuts and when i hit the gym and squat 455 it doesnt bother me why is that ?

Thank you! I have injured myself twice in this way and the first time I was misdiagnosed (I told the orthopedist that it wasn't a patellar dislocation) and was put n a full leg brace for 8 weeks. This time I began with squats to rehab my knee and I caused more pain and weakness. Now I am going to follow your suggestions which sound much more reasonable. I'm surprised how much balance I've lost but i think your plan will work for me.

Tore my ACL and LCL from a late tackle. Heading for surgery eventually. Will incorporate these pre-op. Thanks.

Thanks for this super video !! Ill follow you insta

Played on this (basketball) for 2 months thinking I could just ice up and it’ll go away not knowing what it was because I have NO IDEA when it happened I just started feeling it - I finally shut it down for like 6-7 weeks and man I honestly don’t think I’ll ever be the same again I’m 100% fine til I play then it feels the same so I have to play weeks at a time
