i have had surgery on both knees from skiing through the years. want to guess what the symptoms were.? go see the dr. it isn't just a bruise. knees are a lot more delicate than we give them credit for.
was skiing and fell on my knee cap. now 3 days later i just heard a pop and its throbbing and its severe pain! . they did an xray but they didn't have an mri machine available. i will not be able to access a doctor for another 3-9 days. a half hour the pop happened and it really hurts. on a scale of 1-10 (10 being like you've just been shot) its more of an 8. 7
