the diagnosis:
" Its really too swollen to tell anything right now. You have a lot of fluid in your knee, the inner joint is very tight b/c of the swelling. That is why you cannot fully extend or bend your leg. We'll take an xray to rule out broken bones but I doubt that is the case (xray showed no broken bones). Worst case scenerio is you ruptered your ACL. You would need surgery and recovery usually takes 9 months. At best you just pulled something, but pulled it badly. You could be better in less than a week if you properly take care of it. Stay off of it for the rest of the week and get it checked out again at the end of the week."
