Yep... I blew my fuggin' knee right the hell out today... Went runnin' today and when I got back, my knee issued this wonderful little crack and I haven't been able to stand up straight since...

Not sure what the hell I did to it, but I can hardly walk...

DAMMIT!

Damn dark. that really sucks.

ice bro....control the swelling...
and remember.....
"pain is weakness leaving the body"...at least that is what my occupational therapist says when she's playing "gumby" with my finger....."that woman is the devil i tell you...the devil"

i hate to say it but it sounds like some lose cartledige. had that happen to me too. it finally moved out of the way and i could stand up. hope it isnt that.

Ace bandage, IcyHot, Absorbing Jr. and Bag Balm - cures all problems! Everything from warts to compound fractures! You heard it here folks!

I could always try "Windex" (those of you who had seen "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" will get that 'un).

Feels like my knee is on a spring... won't go straight... I think I popped somethin... doesn't hurt unless I put it straight. So I'm thinkin' I'll give it a day, and if all else fails, I'll attempt to force it past whatever the problem is... Pain is for the weak (see today's post)

Where's Putwig when you need him? Calling Dr. Putwig, Calling Dr. Putwig....you have a new customer!

Seriously, I hope it's nothing serious....I hope you avoid the "pleasure" of surgery and the fun that follows..."Physical Therapy"!

well at least you can get you ur comp/ stuck in front of it.

Foe... like I'd let PUTWIG try to mess with my leg...

He'd probably put me under anasthetic and take pictures of people doin' weird stuff to me while I was "under"...

sorry to hear that dark...i've had a bum knee for 20yrs or so, and know the feeling dude...if wasnt putting wieght on it when it happened, it may not be severe...but then again......

hope ya heal quick guy

Take two Motrin, and run it off, damnit!

Aren't you glad you never joined the Army? That is their cure for everything.

Honestly, just take it easy for a week or so, and get some heat on it. If you actually felt a snap, go in and get it looked at. I had knee surgery on my right one twice now, it don't get better the longer you wait.

Akita... I blew my knees runnin' long distant track in high school... It feels okay for awhile to where I forget it's messed up, then I try to go jogging like a dumb ass...

Usually, it's just a pain like my knee is in a vice and someone is trying to pop my kneecap off... THAT I can jog through...

Today, It snapped... felt like there was a torch under my kneecap and I felt sick... As it is, when I walk on it, it feels like my leg isn't "stopping" where it's supposed to... it keeps feeling like my lower leg could just keep sliding forward... I think I did some damage this time...

Regardless...I am going out to "Walk it off" right now... we'll have to see how it goes...

Sorry to hear that. If it doesn't feel better soon I'd go see the doctor. Don't force it stright. You could do more harm than good.

OOhhh man , had to love those 800mg horse pills BA


Man i hope you feel better dark

LOL@The windex funny

Srry to hear about ur knee. Take two asprin and call me in the morning

Yeah, you got a flat tire. If you want to jog, look into a brace with metal supports. But I think the doc is going to need to see you for this one.

ya mean that feeling aint normal?man you are starting to get me scared.hope it works its self out and take it easy dark get better and do what the folks say it should be allright.(serious,he
EDIT: hey dark did you use to climb?if ou didnt look into it i use to have a friend that didnt have any knees had many surgeries on thiem from motorcycle racing..any way his doc couldnt believe how well he recooped when he climbed after a few years.

I loved how the military gave Motrin 500s for everything. I once got a captain to just give me a prescription for 5 bottles of those Mortin 500s while I stopped by to get a tet shot. I still have a bottle left over. Mortin 500s = USAF Candy.
