hey guys

so i tore my pcl about 4 weeks ago now, the description from the mri was acute high grade partial mid substance pcl tear and sprain of the central posterior joint capsule. havent yet seen the surgeon but pretty much i have max 3 more weeks left of the footy season and want to get back in that time. just wondering what the normal recovery time is for a pcl tear without surgery and if its safe to start playing again. been doing physio for the last 2 weeks aswell
