I took a bad spill at my gym in July this year on a case of water left outside the cooler i felt like i was hit by a truck face planting on the hard tile but instantly my right knee felt like it was stinging almost like on fire black and blue instantly so i came home and elevated and iced it , went to DC sightseeing three days after, when going down steps like at the Lincoln memorial i had to one at a time keeping my knee kind of straight almost like a tearing feeling well it's December and it's still kind of black and blue and sensitive even if my dog's tail hits it, anyone have an injury similar?

    Go see a good sports orthopedic surgeon. He'll start with an exam and x-ray. If he can't give you a definitive diagnosis, he'll order an MRI. No guessing; you need a pro to look at this.
