My day started off with a decently hard fall on our coaster box, nothing 2 serious, i got up and skied to the next rail in our park. about 3 hours later when i was fuckin around with some friends on our small hit i noticed it hurt extremely bad to turn my leg inside and lift it(like mute grab). also then inside on my knee is extremely tender and a lil swollen but theres no bruise (i dont bruise easly). But anyways im havin trouble determining if this is a bruise or if i torn something in my knee. Ive never had a bruise make it this difficult to move my leg.
 
go to a docter you dont wanna fuck around with a knee injury..i had the same thing and i got it looked at..turned out that it was just a muscle bruise but the doc said he was glad i came in cause i could have easily torn something if i kept skiing hard on it
 
water on the knee?????

inside of the knee is the mcl...which can be easily injured skiing

R.I.C.E

if it still bothers you in a few days see a doc...does not sound to serious, so man up for a few days and see how it feels tuesday
 
You may have burst your bursa sac. Its a small, fluid-filled sac that provides a cushion for your knee. I've burst my right one twice, just from running. My knee gets swollen, there's no bruise, it kind of hurts, and my range of motion is very limited for about a week. If this is what's happened to you, just rest it for a week and you'll be fine.
 
Unfortunately the fact that you don't have a bruise is a bad sign. If you also don't have much swelling that's another bad sign. A torn ligament won't swell up because there isn't any blood supply to ligaments. I'd definetly go to a Doc to get things checked out.
 
i hate that! i have it on myhip too! but you would for sure know if you tore something if you turn your knee inside and walk on it and it feels like its collapsing its your acl. but its either a bone bruise or just a really bad bruise.
 
Yeah dude I got hit by a snowboarder my first night at the night park and bruised my hip bone and it fuckin SUCKS.

Dude if you tore your ACL or MCL or something serious like that, you wouldn't have ridden away from it. See a doctor just in case though.
 
it is actually very common to tear an acl and not realize it.

I have skied away from an acl/pcl/mcl tear - left knee

four weeks ago I tore my rt mcl...skied away, thought that was it, found out three days later I had a stree fracture on my tibia, and last week I learned that my ACL was also torn -

Depending on how strong your knee was prior to the injury, tears are not always immediatly evident...

this one sounds like a low grade mcl tear - man up, buy an over the counter (OTC) knee brace, RICE, and man up

if it still hurts in a few days or feels "weird" go see a doc
 
yea the knee i tore my acl with i didnt know it was an acl and i just kept skiing on it but it hurt really bad so its best for you to just get it checked out
 
yea thats why im kinda scared, one of my friends had a minor tear in his acl and didnt notice it. the next day he feel skiing and tored it worse, he was out for the entire season
 
i think i may have torn my acl, it was a while ago. bad hockey hit. i couldnt support myself and it felt liek my knee was gonna collapse sideways. god that hurt. yet the doc said i was ok. now im having more problems with my knees. im gonna go get it checked. i would recomend getting your knees checked out.
 
you should def get it checked out. my buddy tore his acl just the other week but didnt even know it. his mom made him go to the doctor since it was still way swollen 3 days later...
 
word, that always used to happen to me in 4th / 3rd grade from just runnin in gym, i couldnt bend my leg at alla nd it gets swollen as hell, painful
 
I had to have 60 cc's of fluid drained from my knee one time. they put a nail size needle in between my kneecap and knee and sucked it out... hopefully i wont have to go through that again
