Skateboarding knee injury, ACL, MCL, meniscus injury, rehab and prevention.

We all heard PRod recently suffered from a serious injury to his knee, something called a terrible/unhappy triad which in a nutshell means taking out 3 of the main structures inside your knee, or in other words absolutely obliterating your knee. In this video I’m going to go over the symptoms and causes of the different parts of his knee injury and then a bit on prevention. I’m not a physiotherapist but the info in this video along with the article up on https://www.thedailypush.com'>https://www.thedailypush.com/unhappy... has been provided by Jerome Stam aka @skateboardphysio, aka the onsite physio at the last Street League in Rio , so you better belieeeeeve that you’re getting that high quality info!

The 3 parts of the triad that PRod damaged were his medial meniscus, (MCL) the medial collateral ligament, and (ACL) anterior cruciate ligament. Read the full article about these injuries here: https://www.thedailypush.com'>https://www.thedailypush.com/produnh...

If you’ve got any of those symptoms or anything else that’s telling you something’s seriously wrong with your knees then you should go to a doctor or a physiotherapist ASAP, as the faster you’ve got a rehab plan in place the better. Meniscus and MCL tears can often be resolved with physiotherapy alone. However, an ACL rupture won’t heal on its own and will usually require reconstructive surgery.

When it comes down to prevention Jerome also says that although a lot of straight up bad luck is involved in these injuries, working out along with skating itself are both solid ways to reduce the risk of these injuries and nearly all injuries. Skating on a regular basis (23x a weeks) helps your body adapt specifically to the stresses of skating, so the more you skate the more your body will be prepared for skating. Increasing your strength and stability will also help protect your joints and greatly reduce your chances of injury, and he recommends doing the bodyweight exercises at https://www.thedailypush.com'>https://www.thedailypush.com/tweaking... about 23x a week as well.
Warming up properly before you skate is also an important part of injury prevention along with making sure you’re recovering properly from your sessions.
