Lasting Knee Pain

2017-12-15 23:17:07
Hi! A week before Thanksgiving, I passed out while leaving class and hurt my knee. The nurse thought it was broken so I went to the ER and got x-rays, but they found nothing wrong, so they sent me home with a knee brace which I wore for a week. After the bruising healed, my knee stopped hurting for awhile, but now it’s extremely painful to walk again and I can’t put any pressure on it. I don’t know what’s causing it to hurt again, or if it’s even related.
