Injury on knee, help?
Last night I got home after playing some sports and I kind of jumped a little, and I felt a severe pain in the side of the back of my knee and it kind of popped. There wasn't any physical contact with my knee while I was playing sports.
Today as I was walking, I felt pain in the same area. I can almost fully extend my leg without any pain in my knee, but when I bend it or put any weight on it it hurts pretty badly. Also, I put my finger on where the pain is while I bent it and the muscle was kind of quivering. Any rotation of my knee (like getting out of the car) makes the pain come back as well.
Does anyone have any clue what this could be? Also, should I wait until Monday and schedule a doctor's appointment or go to the ER this weekend? Thanks.

You probably tore a ligament. It happened to me. It's not too much to worry about, but I recommend calling your doctor. Meanwhile try to rest your leg and keep it leveled over your heart so you have a steady amount of blood running through your leg. Take some Tylenol to calm the pain, and maybe ask a family member to help you meanwhile you recover (: I hope you feel better soon.
