Knee Problem?

[Justin]

Ok so one day last week, monday night I think, I was in the Bathroom looking in the mirror and my knee like popped and it made me fall. It hit the ground and my knee was killing me.

I couldn't walk on it but it seems to have gotten better. I can walk on it for a little while and keeping it elevated helps. I cannot go to the doctor because I have no insurance and my new employer will not allow me to take time off. So I am stuck, and I need to go to work everyday.

What could it be?

For sure try to not walk on it when possible and keep it elevated (plus ice).

Could be separated. I don't know too much about knees.

On-call Doctor, we have them in Scotland and they can see whats the problem, basically you phone them up and they see if it is badly damaged or if you need treatment or some sort, but they cannot do anything to it but either rap a bandage round it or take you into hospital if you don't drive.

You may have torn a ligament in it. I'm not sure though, go get diagnosed by a doctor.

Hi guys, I found out it was most likely a muscle spasm in my knee. The best treatment is rest 😛

Icing the knee will help considerably. Also try not to put too much pressure on it so it will have time to recuperate.

he would be unlucky if he did - i tore the ligament in my hip 2 days before the summer holiday in a 5m sprint :lol: :lol: :lol:

the whole summer on crutches 🙁
