| Kind of a long shot, but whatever.
So yesterday I was coming in from a 5-0 fakie on a quarter, and I slipped out. While slipping out my left foot (I'm regular, but I was going switch) fell off the board, and my knee twisted to where tibia was close to being perpendicular with the ground (like the splits, but with only one leg. I got a really bad sharp pain in the outer side of my knee, next to my kneecap. I've barely been able to walk on it without being on ibuprofen. I've been icing it a ton. Does anyone know what it might be? My friend's dad said it could be my MCL, I'm not sure though. Anyways, If this doesn't heal in about 9 days Woodward is going to suck.
Leave tips or ideas or whatever.
thanks! |

| My parents are out of town until monday night, so that's not really an option. I'll see if I can get in touch and maybe schedule something. |

| Just keep icing it and compressing it man, get a bandage or knee support on it until your parents are back, and if its not any better its probably best to go to the doctors or something. |

| Get to a doctor. Don't self medicate unless you know what your doing. It could go worse. |

| go to vitamin shoppe and get a whole bunch of this crap:  take like 4 little balls every 2-3 hours + advil (if it's really that bad) + ice, probably needed. + elevate and relax, maybe watch tv while icing. |

| Going to the doctor tuesday most likely. I've been icing it a bunch, walking on it a bit. Feels a bit better than yesterday which is good. |
