Knee injury - Clikcing in my knee when i bend it.

Hi

Last night I was playing football and was kicked my the opposition.

I was basiclaly running full pelt and tried to take the ball around someone, and he put his boot directly into my knee sending me onto the floor.

The impact was quite hard and because i was running full speed it really went with some force.

The impact hurt pretty bad and i couldnt get to my feet straight away.

I managed to walk after the match although i could feel slight pain in my knee.

The same night when i got in bed my knee completely locked and i couldnt put any weight on my leg, so much so that i couldnt walk.

It feels very weak this morning and whenever i bend the knee it clicks twice, like something is popping in my knee.

Any ideas what this could be???

The knee is slightly swollen and theres minimal bruising.

Owwww. 😣 that soinds awful.

I don't have any experience as i am not even 24 post surgery yet....but instinct tells me might be good idea to see your doctor or at call to prevent any further damage.

Good luck!!

SPORTS Orthopedic Surgeon...RIGHT NOW!!!

Could be one of several things. You should get in to a sports med ortho asap. Don't guess as you can turn a little injury into a major problem by continual usage. In the meantime, ice it and don't use any kind of brace or wrap
