From: ESPN.com news services — Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor said a routine surgery to strengthen a partially torn posterior cruciate ligament three weeks ago turned into a more extensive procedure once the doctor found unexpected issues.

Pryor, who revealed before the Rose Bowl he had been dealing with a slight PCL injury, said Sunday at a team charity event in Columbus, Ohio, that the arthroscopy was performed on his left knee, not the right as the school announced in early February.

“We just thought I’d strengthen it, but when Dr. [Chris] Kaeding went into it, there were a lot of things wrong with it,” Pryor said, according to The Plain Dealer.

Pryor, who was expected to be back to 100 percent before spring practice in April, said he had resumed strength training but hadn’t rejoined team workouts, according to the Cleveland newspaper.

“You lose a type of leadership,” Pryor said of missing the team dynamic. “I laid at home for about five Cialis pill whithout prescription days and then I went in and started to do upper body [workouts]. My upper body got real weak because I was sitting at home taking pain pills and I lost a lot of weight because I wasn’t really eating.

“So I’m going to start getting back with the team workouts,” he added. “It kind of [stinks] because you can’t work out with your team.”
