Torn MCL
I was diagnosed with a partial tear to the deep MCL ligament.
My knee was in an immobilizer for 5 days, then a hinged brace at 45 degree range for three weeks. Now I am at 90 degrees.
I am working on ROM and strengthening at home, but ROM has not seemed to progress much in the last week, and there is still swelling.
My doctor expects that I will be back in action at 8 weeks from injury.
The knee feels pretty strong otherwise.
What is the most effective way to regain ROM??

I was dignosed with a partial tear of the mcl in yearly april after a skiing accident in early febuary. I was in a hing brace for three weeks and I still use it for sports, but the pain has never gone away. If you any ideas on what I can do it would be greatly apperciated.
