hi my name is Tony. 4 weeks ago i dislocated my Knee while doing a squat thrust. I workout at least 4 times a week and consider myself fit and healthy. is there anything i can do to make my knee heal any faster. Any tips you may have would be great. Also any information you mave have of this find of injury would be great. ALso i think i should mention I do a lot of Kickboxing (Muay Thai)and Grappling. Thanks a lot

see your doctor, if you haven't already.

Eat a healthy diet and work your leg through range-of-motion, no weight.

Ice the knee after activity to minimize swelling/damage from swelling.

Your doctor should be able to give you guidelines on how long you need to restrict your activities.
