Thoha's Story part 1

Hi all,

I am going to share one of my personal stories with you. I hope some of you will benefit from this and I really really want comments from any of you...

Its about my knee problem. I got it during the futsal practice for the CHSE tournament. That day we were having a practice match. I got on the pitch in the last half and I wanted to play a nice game. One of the sadest things in my life happened because I pushed my body in fact my knee too far. I was running and I tried to accelerate even faster for a 50-50 oppportunity. Suddenly I heard a "pop" noise from my knee and when I remembered I was sitting on the ground. I remained there for a while because I couldn't bear my weight on my knee. The pain was severe and there was swelling all around my knee.My knee could bend about 30 degrees because it was locked.

I went to the doctor after about a week when the knee didnt get better. The  doctor told there was fluid and
blood inside the knee. So he put a syringe inside and sucked up the blood. I bed-rested for two days. After that also my knee locked so I went to the doctor again. He checked and told to do a physiotherapy exercise. I asked him whether I can play soccer again or not. He said it will be allright to go once the knee is a little better.



So I went to play and the knee gave-out. Its like the bones get out the joint and again coming to its place. Again the knee swelled , locked and gave me severe pain. So I realised that I don't have just an ordinary knee problem. I went to another doctor and consulted him. He asked me to do an MRI. When I got the results I was shocked. I was being asked to take one of the two decisions. Arthroscopy (keyhole surgery) or going away from football forever.

My knee has been damaged a lot. I had a partial teared ACL and partial teared medial meniscus (cartilage). I have been away from the pitch for about 7 months now. It hurts me everytime when I see people playing soccer. Getting there ones again is one of my dreams now.

For treatment, I am going to India soon for my surgery. Insha Allah I will update here with as much details as possible.

* My dear friends. please note that your bodies has a limit. If  you are to exceed the limit it will degrade. So take care and especially for the knees if you are a active one. :)
