Apparently these injuries are common because of the way women are built. Makes sense! Anyway, the knee injuries have decreased significantly and existing problems have ceased to exist. It's a great program and I recommend it for all women athletes.<BR/>http://www.aclprevent.com/pepprogram.htmAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645564918156568632.post-16982915114555959692008-11-12T16:07:00.000-05:002008-11-12T16:07:00.000-05:00Had surgery a month ago to reapir a torn PCL in my...Had surgery a month ago to reapir a torn PCL in my right knee. My symptoms while skating were: behind the knee pain and severe pain on impact (even single knee touch n goes ), it would swell a little. Instability in the turns. But after a few days of rest and it was fine so I attributed it to just being worn out....you should get it checked out, it could lead to other(more serious)injuries if it goes untreated. Hope this helpsRIDIN' DIRTYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07123814754100239721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2645564918156568632.post-29768549760259146872008-09-05T14:49:00.000-04:002008-09-05T14:49:00.000-04:00What were your syptoms?

I have been playing derby for 2 years and have chronic back of the knee pain now in both knees. It is very severe on impact. Any info would be helpful.Crime Minister (ARRG)noreply@blogger.com
