A member asked:

I just fractured a part of my knee its a small one but it hurts badly! the doctor said no weight bearing but as an athlete i want to compete on it ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not a great idea: I agree with your doctor.Assuming that you have a knee frsacture, you are looking at a minimum of 4-8 weeks of no athletics, intensive PT and a knee brace. Continuing to compete with a knee fracture willl ultimately lead to poor healing or post traumatic arthritis.
