That sounds really bad! :( Rest is the key issue here. Maybe you should try reducing the pressure on your knees, move around lesser etc. Hopefully the pain goes away soon! Take care! :)

Ah, poor you! That really sucks. I’d definitely rest if I were you, and hopefully it’s nothing permanent and it will go away after a couple of days.

Isn’t it?! I mean, if I had like, finger pain, I could still get around just fine. But knee pain sucks because you can’t move anywhere D:

Depending on how you left your chair you’ve possibly pulled the muscle and your problems before would have made it worse. Rest is definitely the best idea, give it a few days.

If things get really bad, I guess I’ll try icing. I’ve always associated icing with keeping the swelling down, which I guess is why I’m so skeptical as my knee isn’t swollen :P My knee has gotten a little better as the day has gone by though, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed that the pain will go as quickly as it came.

Awww! *hugs*

I suppose I’ve never ventured into Chinese herbal medicines, so I swear by icing. My back’s been acting up since I starting doing lots of drafting for school, and ice saves the day when it starts hurting. :)

I don’t ever ice things, usually. Just because I’m skeptical about how well it works when I have a huge array of Chinese herbal medicines at my disposal :P I think it’s a nerve thing too this time, and not a muscle thing. If that’s true, that explains why I’m so much more immobilized than usual because it’s not like you can massage a nerve the way you can a muscle.

And I miss dancing. A lot. A lot a lot :(

Oh, that sucks. I have PFS in my right knee. A lot of the time, it’s fine for months and months – right now, I’m going through a bad period and it’s been giving me a tonne of trouble. It makes it really difficult to go up and down stairs.

I hope your knee feels better soon. :( Knee pain is the worst!
