My knee started bothering me a few weeks ago as well (although mine didn't ever swell) but after taking a few weeks off it's doing much better. It's SO HARD to take it easy but a little extra support with a knee brace and some time off really was the trick. Oh, and the Ibruprofen was nice too. ;) Best wishes!Kruns2https://www.blogger.com/profile/08458389451703643971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9031751345462244954.post-70055555306524058122010-10-12T12:53:56.509-07:002010-10-12T12:53:56.509-07:00yikes, that definitely doesn't look good. :/ ...yikes, that definitely doesn't look good. :/ Mine never looked like that, but felt like it was that swollen, if that makes sense.
