Hi yesterday I think i sprained my knee while playing football. We were doing pass rushing drills and my leg got caught in the middle and i felt the outside of my knee being pushed inwards. There wasn t much pain immediately. I was able to walk or limp back to the sidelines without much pain. However, whenever I tried to bend/straighten my knee there was a slight popping feeling. The next morning, the pain was really bad as whenever i tried to move my leg there was this sharp pain in my knee.
Hi, You need to take an X-ray of ankle to rule out any fractures. Muscle sprain needs to be treated with painkillers and rest to improve the symptoms. Any tendonitis or ligament tear should also be ruled out. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
