How bad did i damage my knee ligament and is it serious?!


Question: How bad did i damage my knee ligament and is it serious?
I damaged my knee ligament when i was snowboarding i went to the hospital and got x-rays
the doctor told me how i damaged it and said to stay off it for 10-14 days it has healed a lot and i am on day 10 i can walk on it normally but it hurts a tiny bit and she said by day 14 i should be able to go snowboarding again. I dont think i will be 100% in 4 more days but what are your opinions on this

i am a 15 year old boy


correction* limp on it and walk a tiny bit without tensor band


i am not sure which ligament it is but it is on... my right knee on the left side of it

Answers:

If your doctor expects it to be fully healed by day 14, then you probably only caused a tiny tear, because a fully torn/snapped ligament takes MONTHS to heal, but if you're still feeling pain, wait a few more days because if there's still some damage and you put too much strain on it, the rest of it can easily tear.
