Sounds like ACL problem to me

---

as I was saying...

When an ACL injury occurs, the knee becomes less stable. The ACL injury is a problem because this instability can make sudden, pivoting movements difficult, and it may make the knee more prone to developing arthritis and cartilage tears.

I just did a simple google search rather than go in depth...

Blusky, ignore my posts then, i have every right to post here and offer my advice, its been far more accurate than your advice in this instance, and like I said having been manager of a Health Club/gym for 2 yrs my input is not fake :) And as i also snapped my ACL and broke my tibial Plateau 5 yrs ago I think i have a lil bit of experience in understanding the knee.

You do not have the qualifications to diagnose. Neither do I. I am advising the poster to get a second professional medical evaluation. Let us not let an ego get in the way, shall we?

---

and where did I diagnose? I simply offered my opinion as did you. You said it sounds like dislocation, I said it sounds like a ligament problem, we'll see if either of us are correct when he gets it checked out!

I am so glad you are a regular in the No-sense forum. It is where you belong Steve.

---

why? because you have to be the only one offering advice?!

As I said, I have experience, if you accepted that then there wouldnt be a problem.

and good for the nurses, I wasnt a nurse :)

It was a ligament problem and she required about four months of physical therapy. It also just takes time and daily anti-inflammatory meds.

No I am not. I have worked with nurses from the U.K. They have had to return to college to meet the requirements to become licensed to practice in the U.S.

I think you lie

THE UK health service is about to become a victim of its own policy of poaching qualified nurses from developing nations. Now the United States is starting to poach NHS (National Health Service - UK) staff.

New, unpublished figures from the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) show that the numbers of nurses leaving the UK to work in America more than doubled last year, reports Nursing Times (November 4). Verification checks of UK nurses requested by American employers increased from 1,089 in 2001 to 2,224 in 2002.

The United States has a growing need for extra nurses to start filling the huge demographic holes that are predicted for the next decade.

The exodus of nurses from the UK is a growing problem for the NHS. Last year, NMC figures show that 8,079 nurses left to work abroad, the most in ten years. Nursing Times says that US recruitment agencies are increasing their presence at job fairs in Britain, and putting enticing adverts in the professional press.

James Buchan, a nursing workforce analyst, tells the journal: "Employers in America rate nurses from the UK as having a high standard of training and they are rated as good workers." He adds: "It will not get any easier to retain NHS nurses because there will be increasing competition between here and the USA."

Howard Catton, the senior employment relations adviser at the Royal College of Nursing, cautions the health service against being complacent. "We are going to be in their sights. If they are offering a destination such as California - compared with inner-city England - with commitments to help with visas, work permits and moving families, it will be a hugely attractive pull," he says.

"If I were an American employer I would be targeting UK-trained nurses. They are regarded as top of the table of nurse training. The USA will do what the USA needs to do to recruit as many as it needs."
