Very hurt knee after hitting it hard
I hit my knee very very hard. it instantly started hurting, turned red, and an excessive amount of warmth came from it, i don’t have to touch it to know it’s very warm, i can feel it as well through my body if that makes sense. i can’t bend it either or else it will hurt. if i do bend it back and forth, i will hear a crackling sound and a small pop, i will also feel a pop.
