So about a month ago i had football practice and some big guy fell straight on my knee on the side pushing it in i think i heard 2 pops.. is that possible?and i didnt really notice any swelling up much but i couldnt walk i went to a orthopedic a couple days later and he said i torn my mcl he gave me a big brace that keeps me from bending my knee. He said i would be out for 4 weeks then be on a new brace for another 4 until i can start my therapy but he didnt sound like it was serious. but days after i felt that i could walk so i did and 2 weeks after going to the orthopedic i had enough of the brace and i took it off i have been walkin without the brace for a week and i can bend my knee almost all the way but it starts to hurt wen its almost fully bent backwards i can also ride a bike now after slowly bending my knee more often.I use to give in wen i bend inwards and it would hurt pretty bad but now its pretty good the only time it hurts is when i squat and get back up. Anyways my question is if what i did was a good idea. If walking right now when it has little to no pain will make my condition anyworse and possibly put me out for even a longer time than expected. Thanks
