Hurt myself on a stupid 180 about 10 weeks ago. Went to the doc asap and he told me my knee was only sprained and it would be better in 6wks. After 8wks I went back and demanded a MRI. He told me today that I have a slightly torn acl and a bone bruise. When it first happened I lost a lot of mobility in my knee but it has been progressively getting better. I almost have full mobility back and it isn't as sore now as it has been. The doc is sending me to a specialist and I am hoping to get a good brace. I definately have to take it easy so that I don't tear it all the way. Here is my question: Have any of you had a slightly torn acl that has healed itself? Because it has been feeling progressively better, I am hoping that I can use a brace for the summer and I will resolve itself.
