I Need of Knee Injury Diagnosis?A few hours ago, I was struck on the inside of my left knee during a contact sports game by the knee of another player who was running full speed toward me. I did not hear any distinctive popping noises but went down to the ground immediately and was not able to bend/move my leg because of intense pain. Within fifteen minutes, the pain had begun to decrease it and within 20-25 minutes I was able to lightly walk on it. I am trying not to put too much pressure on the left leg because of pain that occurs to the right (inside) of my kneecap. I can extend and bend the leg, but I cannot straighten/bend the knee all the way because of a feeling of "pressure" when it approaches either extreme. Just sitting in a chair with my leg slightly bent and resting on the ground, I can feel a slight sort of pressure and some pain/discomfort on the inside side of the knee. If I press about an inch to the right (inside) of the middle of my kneecap I can feel a soreness/pain. There is no swelling/bruising as of yet, but I have been icing it.
Can anyone give me a likely diagnosis for this injury? Best answer will be chosen, most likely one that explains why you make such a diagnosis. Thanks for the help.

You probably would have fractured a bone in your leg or knee.If you're experiencing these symptoms below, you probably have;
* Severe pain in and around the kneecap
* Swelling
* Pain when moving the knee in both directions
* Difficulty extending the leg or doing a straight-leg raise
* A deformed appearance of the knee due to the fractured pieces
* Tenderness when pressing on the kneecap
You should talk to a doctor though, this could be more than just a minor injury.
Hope you feel better :D

I experienced a similar issue a couple years ago. I had impacted my tibial plateau inside the knee, but it originally looked like a meniscal tear. Really you need to get this checked out by a doctor if pain persists for more than a week. If it is a meniscal tear it might seem like nothing but the loose cartilage could just sit there for a while before it starts interfering and causing severe pain.
Like I said though, if pain persists more than a week, see a physician because it could be something as severe as a torn meniscus broken bone in the knee.
