Hi everyone!
Currently, I've been recovering for 6 months for my dislocation of the kneecap. During this process, I've had an X-ray at the start (everything being fine), and an MRI a couple months later. For the latter, I was told that nothing much was found except for a torn MPFL (I was told that this is normal in this type of injury) and my kneecap being a little too high. Any major damages to the cartilage were not found.
Obviously, many of you have had it much worse right from the start, and I'm also aware that, being in this community, many have not had the best of recovery experiences and recurrent problems (much of this can be found when looking online). I was wondering, however, whether there are also people who have had a first-time dislocation (conservative; no surgery) and who were able to continue playing sports at a later point?
Feel free to give your experiences! On my end, I'm mostly in the gym now to continue strengthening my muscles, and will have my first strength test soon!
