Answers:
Most people are able to recover from an MCL tear within a few weeks!. The best thing you can do to move the process along is to keep off of it!. Other than that, icing it and taking anti-inflammatory medications will help!.

When I tore my MCL, I also went to physical therapy for 3 weeks!. I think that helped!.!.!. =)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sorry!. None that I know of!. You just have to live with the pain till it heals itself!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
