Torn Ligament – How to Heal Properly
Hi,
recently my girlfriend has torn her ligaments in her knee.
I was wondering if there is anything I can do to help her recover faster and aliviate some of her pain. Is there any medicine or anything I can give her to help rebuild the ligaments faster?Any information would be greatly appreciatedI want to be sure we have done everything right so this heals properly. After reading a couple horror stories on the net, I am a little more then concerned.

I am a Podiatrist (Foot Specialist) so I can not really tell you specifics about the knee. However, when there is an injury, generally speaking, it is best to use RICE (rest ice compression and elevation) The extent of the damage should dictate the long term treatment. Her doctor who examined her should be able to give more information.
