When I tore my ACL and MCL, my bones collided too. I had significant bruising and had to use crutches for 5 weeks. I'm twelve weeks out and believe I'm finally over THAT pain. I had so much damage in there, it's hard to say what was coming from where, but I'm finally feeling better now. The first two months, I had a lot of pain.
My surgeon was pretty concerned about the bruising and didn't want any weight bearing until they healed. It takes a long time. Much different than a fracture.
Now I have to have ACL reconstruction a week from today and I'm getting pretty nervous about it.
