Knee stiffness

2018-09-04 16:08:46
Two weeks ago I fell off my skateboard. My knee was hurt pretty bad, but it wasn't broken. Instead it's super stiff, I can't bend it all the way, and I'm walking awkwardly. I can't straighten my knee, but if I lay it down straight, it twitches. I'm leaving for the Navy in November, so I need to train so I can stay in shape.

Get an X-RAY done. To rule out fracture and any ligament tear. If all these are normal, then don't worry ,it's just an inflammation, it will relieve by 1 week with medication
Next Steps
Consult for medication.
