can you be any more specific than "fell down really hard?" if you just fell down it's probably just a bruise. maybe a bone bruise if you fell hard enough. you don't tear ligaments or do serious damage just from falling over

I never understand threads like this. What the fuck are you expecting us to tell you or do? No matter what we say, you're still going to have to see a doctor and get imaging if it doesn't get better. You're not going to die, so just rest and ice it until you can get to a doctor and stop making stupid threads.

I'd say it's either your nissan maximus or altimus if it's on the inside of your knee. Probably just a strain and not a tear. I wouldn't be worried unless it hurts to walk after a week.

oh, okay. yeah, if twisting is involved could be something worse. if it doesn't start feeling better in a few days go to a doctor. until then ice and take it easy

If it hurts on the inside of your knee when you walk its probably a strain or sprain of the MCL, but also with the twisting it could sprain the ACL as well probably nothing serious

go to a fucking doctor. i had the same injury last season, walked it off, thought i was fine. early season this year, sprain my knee, finally go to a doctor, and then find out my ACL is most likely torn. I'm still waiting on an MRI. can't ski this season now.

It might also be your Nissan Pathfindificus or Threfiftezius. Better get those checked out too.

I forgot to add that there is an off chance it could be your Nissan Sentrus or Toyotus Corollus. Just pray it's not either of those though becasue you could be out of physical activity for 2-5 years.
