Knee dislocated
Yesterday I fill when i was playing football and my right knee got dislocated then I relocated my knee by myself. Today when I woke up my knee was 2× the size of my regular knee and I can't stand or put any weight on my knee
You might be mistaking a patella dislocation with knee dislocation as knee dislocation can be really difficult to reduce by self.
