are just miserable. Gotta be one of the worst parts of the body to fall on.

Fell right smack on my knee last Sunday and it still hurts. Feels like something is moving across my kneecap when I move it.
Had to hang up my ice skates for a bit :headache:
 
Had surgery on mine a year ago. I could tell when I woke up that it was better. Actually walked out of the surgery center.

I had surgery for a meniscus tear and could tell right away that they fixed it when I woke up.

I was not permitted to walk though and after I removed the dressing 24 hours later, my jello blob of a leg ended up freezing into place. I did not like that first PT appt one bit.

However I did go on to do the Disney half-marathon 2.5 months later. So while I didn't walk out of surgery--I was back at it no problem.


OP: I would get the knee checked. Our knee parts aren't supposed to move like that or feel like that. It's a joint we shouldn't notice.

Mine was also a meniscus tear. Very painful.
