Knee Question?

What hurts more a torn ligament in knee (acl, mcl, lcl, pcl) or a torn meniscus?

While ligament pain may be confined to the injury site, it can also refer pain to distant body parts through a portion of the autonomic nervous system called the sympathetic nerves. So I'd say this can be more painful. Not to doubt a torn mesniscus however which can also be incredibly painful, but is usually localized.
