    Answer: C

    The problem is that we are told we should think in a specific way, but what if that way will lead to more pain and more injury to your patient/player

    Think outside the box, avoid special testing at this stage, as it won’t be reliable because of the swelling and injury, and it may cause further damage to the injuried tissues.

    Closing the gap between traditional and evidenve- based practice:

    * Examine Active ROM, with all respect to the symptoms * Apply modalities that will help with reducing the swelling (Lymph taping, RICE, gentle active ROM exercises) *Use your therapeutic tools to reduce pain (Gentle low grade mobilization, gentle active ROM exercises or passive modalities like TENS) *The Golden rule is to keep the player in the game, exercises that involve core🏃🏼‍♂️, proximal control activation, exercises for the unaffected leg or even the upper limbs will help the patient to avoid getting trapped in the chronic pain and central sensitization circle ⭕️
