knee injuries

Poo · Guest

yo ive never really been badly injured but i was wondering if there is any easy ways to hurt your knees. i went wakeskating all day yesterday, thought i felt fine, when i woke up this morning the inside of my right knee is in severe pain, i cant move it an inch without it throbbing, it hurts to walk a little. and it feels like the pain is right between the joints. i wa wondering if anyone has felt this or knows if something like this is serious, im a little worried.

thanks

inside = mcl..........you could have torn it a little or fully. Either way, it heals itself. If it is torn completely you may have to hang it up for 3 months. If you don't you have a greater chance of blowing your ACL. Go get it checked out if it doesn't get better by tommorrow. MRI will give you the facts.

it seems good to walk now, it only hurts when i move my leg when its suspended in the air, like lifting it up to get out of my jeep or something. i can run and jump on it fine, im not gonna ride today. thanks for the info guys. i was scared this morning

vince, my friend recently tore off the outer ligament in his knee.. and what the doctors told him was that the knee injuries that hurt the most is when nothing gets torn off, just stretched. i twisted my knee skateboarding in OSP and it was seriously one of the worst pains I've ever been put through, but it was completely fine after a couple of weeks.

hope you get better soon man.

knee sometimes is still bearable...i just had my left ribcage smacked hard on the water. I can hardly catch my breath, each time inhale it's just miserable. Felt like someone gave me a punch on my lower ribcage.
