Knee hurts!!! A lot!?!


Question: Knee hurts!!! A lot!.?
Yesterday my knee started hurting a lot, and I mean a LOT! I was at jump roping camp for 3 hours.. It isn't bruised at all.. And it doesn't feel like a bruise at all.. Even when I am sitting down it throbs.. I iced for about 20 minutes but it still hurts! What is wrong with me.?.? Should I stop jump roping and use crutches and take it easy.? Or keep jump roping all week for 3 or 4 hours.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
I'm going to guess that while you may jump rope frequently, you don't usually do so for 3 hours a day.. It sounds like you over-stressed your knee; whether it's just a sore muscle, or something more serious like a sprain, cannot be determined over the internet.. For tonight, RICE it.. Rest, ice, compression, and elevation.. So stay off your feet as much as possible, wrap your knee in an ace bandage, ice it, and prop it up.. If possible, keep it elevated above heart level (so lie down or recline).. also take some advil or tylenol..
In the morning, evaluate it.. It it's still sore and throbbing, do not aggravate it by jump roping for another 3 hours.. If it feels better when you wake up, do some stretching and then try jump roping for a few minutes.. If that makes it start hurting again, do not go to the camp.. And if it's still hurting, you should phone your doctor.. As I said, determining if it's something serious cannot be done over the internet..Health Question & Answer
