When I was a Junior in highschool I had tore my ACL, it was shocking to me because for one I didn’t know what that was, also because I have never sprained anything before in my life. It was very hard for me to believe that I could do anything that dangerous to where I actually could tear something.
The day that the accident happened was a regular day in p.e. Class, my class was playing volleyball my team was up by a couple point so the game was starting to get intense.

When I arrived to the doctor’s office the next day to be examined he told me that I had torn my ACL I was in complete shock I didn’t know my accident in volleyball was that serious, once I got over my shock and my doctor explained to me that I had to wear a knee brace for a couple of weeks until it heal.
After I had on the knee brace for a couple of weeks and taken it off I was still experiencing pain in my knee, and even to this day every once in awhile when I walk up hills or stand for a long period of time my knee will start to ache, and I always remember the time I tore my ACL in
