After suffering a catastrophic knee injury, Adrian Peterson came back and was named the NFL's 2012 MVP. However, he now faces another challenge during this off-season.
Peterson suffered a sports hernia some time during the season. One report suggested he ran for more than 850 yards after the injury, which is incredible in its own right.
To return to top form, Peterson will again need to undergo a rigorous rehabilitation program. In my work as a physical therapist, I've helped treat athletes with injuries like these in the past, so I understand what lies ahead for AP. While I want to make it clear that I'm not the person treating Peterson, I can describe what injuries like his are like, and offer insight into how athletes can recover from them.
