Anyone ever strain their MCL?

I strained my MCL last weekend and I'm just wondering how long this kind of injury will take to heal. Will I be skiing in a few weeks? Or is my season over?

dont ski with it Matt.. I did and it ended up causing more pain and only furthered the strain to a tear... take it easy, ice it and rest it and listen to your doctor!!

yea skiing on it is just stupid.
depending on how bad there it is and such i would say your season is done for.
chances are you will be seeing lots of doctors and lots of physio.
im not gonna lie to you, it sucks man.

make an appointment to see a specialist especially when it comes to knee injuries and anything with soft tissues. then go to physio to strenghten it so it doesn't rip next year, cause if that happens you'll be missing a whole season for sure

skiing with any knee injury will just fuck it up more,its not worth the risk of not being able to ski ever again!

I partially tore mine in late december, i was skiing the next weekend and jumping after a month. I still wear a brace just in case, but if you just strained it, get a brace and you should me fine. You can't even notice the brace when you are skiing.

yah just 2 weeks ago I had a grade 2 tear on my MCL. I had some physiotherpay and stuff but honestly, Ive had far worse pain with other injuries and been skiing in 2 weeks. Im going to attempt to go skiing this weekend with some brace the doctors got me for 60$. It doesnt hurt too much anymore... after 2 weeks rest so I'd say give it about the same amount of time.
