Stewie coming home from China to rehab sprain [merged]

[JS]

Doesn't seem too serious.

Thinking back, she's had a nearly injury-free career.

 

[DaddyChoc]

I think she had a ankle injury that kept her out of a game or 2... back when she was goofy

Ominous that it's a ligament injury. Not a doctor, but whenever "CL" comes up, it doesn't seem to bode well.

All the best for her complete recovery.

WebMD says that even a strain implies tears in the PCL, and that full recovery takes 4-12 months. Bad news.

Wishing her a speedy recovery or the WNBA season will not be as interesting.

All the best accupuncturists are there, too.

She reports she will rehab and seek to return to China Play-Offs.

It's a PCL injury.

She calls it no big thing.

She talks her China season and adds:

"She's proud to be linked with the streak, having helped the team win the first 75 games of its current run. As far as when it will end, she has no idea.

"The way they are playing right now, I wouldn't bet against them," she said. "A 150- or 200-game winning streak would be crazy."

In a car accident 30 years ago I tore my PCL... The doctor at that time told me that unless I was a professional athlete he would not even attempt to repair my PCL as the odds of a successful repair were about 5%. Of course that was 30 years ago and all these CL repairs today use advanced techniques and arthroscopic surgery... I am sure the odds for a successful are greatly increased, but it doesn't surprise me that her rehab is up to a year...
