Spinal things tend to be my forte, after four injuries and a fusion operation recently, as well as sciatic nerve damage, but I am completely confused as to what I might have done to my knee. I hope there may be some sporting types who can help!
It is my right knee, and I woke up yesterday unable to put weight onto it. The whole thing was swollen, but not discoloured. I can't tell the difference between "damage-swollen" and "retaining water-swollen." It *is* painful to touch, along the left diagonal across the patella. The muscle below and above the knee joint hamstring, I believe) almost feel as if they have been stung, they are so tender and weak. I use a can to walk, stand, etc.
My gp is out of the country until Thurs, and since I don't know what might be wrong, I don't know if I should push to see a strange dr. I have been keeping my body in a level pose on the couch, with the exception of my head, and it stops my knee throbbing.
So now the big question...what do I do next? Heat? Ice? Compression? elevation? Sacrifice a young Lansbury under the southern moon. Offer a nubile ginger virgin to the close WoW player....?
My knee really, really, REALLY hurts *whimpers*
