So, this afternoon I went skating and was trying to show my friend how to hardflip. Well out of nowhere my knee starts hurting whenever I straighten my leg and/or put weight on it. However, if I bend my leg so that there is about a 120 or less degree angle between my calf and buttox or w/e it feels perfectly normal. wtf?

Watch for swelling and any weird bruising. Give it a few days and I bet it will clear up.

Be careful though as your knee is nothing to be taking lightly at a young age. Trust me. :(

i know the feeling. Ive dislocated my left knee twice and right knee once. Theyre screwed up for life

I hear ya, man. I'm actually planning surgery soon. 23 and my knee/ankle are fucked up. ;(

You're a skateboarder, your knee is supposed to hurt. Trust me.

I got an MRI on my knee on thursday. It's been a year since my last MRI on my other knee. Gotta love the soccer player/sprinter knee's. Definately make sure you get it checked out.

Well to hell with all your sports, I wrestled for 6 years, my knees are uber-screwed. It finally took a jump into a six-foot deep hole to make me have surgery though, blew my ACL, still hurts :(

I've never hurt a joint before other than my ankle. This shit still hurts and I have to walk all retarded for it not to hurt. I just wish I knew wtf I did because it just started hurting randomly... It wasn't like I landed something and twisted my knee. I was standing there giving my friend pointers then I went to walk to a bench and then it started hurting. I can't straighten that leg at all anymore. It hurts too bad but there is no swelling or bruising at all.

well my mom just told me that if I go to the doctor now its 100% covered under insurance so I guess I will go...

you guys must not get enough calcium or something...

I get enough calcium. It was the UHaul that ran me over that disagreed. :P

Ok, doc said its nothing major and to just keep stretching my leg out and deal with it.

Honestly lol. take some vitamins! I played football for 7 years, baseball for 13, and wrestled for 3. I've never broken a bone, or sprained anything. Just a few cracked ribs resulting from a helmet to the side.
