Abstract
There is an inherent risk for anyone who plays competitive sport or engages in strenuous activity that at some juncture they may suffer an injury which will require surgery. This is a situation in which prevention is not always a viable substitute for cure. Beyond the immediate pain and distress that injuries can cause and the difficult decisions that may have to be made with regards to surgery, there is also a wide range of physical and psychological challenges that patients will face and have to overcome during their recovery journeys. This chapter considers the case of an experienced expatriate amateur sports player in China who ruptured his ACL and punctured his meniscus playing football. It explores his experience of the process he then went through as he navigated diagnosis, surgery, and subsequent recovery, considering his rehabilitation motivation and the social identity impact he encountered. It also takes into account patient autonomy, shared decision making, and engagement in medical practice.
