What.. If you strain your knee, should you go to a doctor? My mom says it is strained, but I think it is sprained or something..?

Answer #1

To be on the safe side, you may want to consult a doctor.

Answer #2

thanks.. how do i get my mom to take me to one? she says i just need to ice it.. but its swollen and when i walk there is a sharp pain.

Answer #3

Since it’s swollen, you might have torn something…tell your mom that it’s FAR too painful to be a “strain”…there’s lots of liganments, lots of tendons, and cartiledge in a knee. Lots of things to get injured. You screw up a knee when you’re young, you will be paying for it later. Tell her that.
