beefed it
so i went skimming yesterday...took a nasty spill right on my knee...hurt a little bit afterward but no biggie..kept skimming...i wake up this morning still not so bad...now...its swollen and annoying the shit outta me...just curious if this has happen to anyone.....
just wrap some ice around it.
its me.
you may as well hack your leg off now. seriously. go get a serated knife.
There's a good chance you've handled my ass-pennies. That gives me the edge.
make sure there is plenty of rust on that knife though.

i sometimes stab myself with rusty nails, just because i have my tetanus shot and i dont want to waste it
im sure all you canadians are the same way with your free health care, rectal exams daily right?...just because you can?

yes.......but we didnt make threads about it.Originally Posted by DanZO
haha dick.
im not seeing the big deal in making a thread about this...if i wasted 3.5 seconds of your reading time im truly sorry...flskimboarder...i took up the advice but its still pretty bad...girlfriend told me about getting it drained at the hospital or someshit....i dk tho
it was a joke.......relax.
getting it drained? is there fluid in your knee...can you like move it around? because if there's fluid in your knee yes you will need to get it drained but if not then no you wont. just remember the acronym for when you get hurt RICE Rest Ice Care Elevation.
its me.
that an asian joke?
[sarcasm lvl: high]
Mike and Skimcentral + 10 cool points :cool:
my bad about the joke thing...ive been taking crap a little too serious, but yah after couple days of shit i finally went to the doc....he thinks its an ACL tear.....i hope its not that serious
if it is an ACL tear, be prepared for some serious down time. And perhaps surgery.
acl tear = serious

most A typical
dammit
haha you will know if you tore your ACL. It takes more than just a swollen knee to have one. There are like 50 muscles in there that could be strained, if you wanna know if your ACL is torn, just do the test doctors do. Basically have some put their hands behind you knee with it partially bent and pull your shin owtward, if it gives, thats a torn ACL.
The physician can determine the integrity of the ACL by conducting special ligament stability tests. One simple but important test is called the Lachmans test. With the knee bent to 30 degrees, the physician gently pulls on the tibia to check the forward motion of the lower leg in relation to the upper leg. A normal knee will have less than two to four mm of forward movement, with a firm stopping felt when no further movement is observed. In contrast, a knee with an ACL tear will have increased forward motion and a soft end feel at the end of the movement. This is because of the loss of restraint of the forward movement of the tibia due to the torn ACL.
well i have an MRI tonight so ill find out....just read a thread on wetsuits...its making me sick just thinking of not skimming during winter...
this reminds me of when i partially tour my MCL

i destroyed me knee this summer. got it all twisted and hyper extended around my board as i went over the falls on a set wave, thumping swell. Everyone on the beach was tripping, they thought I was retarded fort rying but ehh. It was swollen and hurt like a bitch. I couldn't skim for like 3 weeks, even though i tried about 8 times unsuccesfully. I just let it heal for about 3 or 4 weeks, and let time heal my wounds. I went and got MRI's etc... but in the end it was ok, i'm sure you will be fine too.
