I haven't really had any problems with my knees for a while, but yesterday, in the kitchen making lunch, I suddenly got a sharp pain in my left knee on what feels to be right in the centre if the knee cap.
I can't fully straighten/lock-out my leg without pain. Walking is fine as long as knee is slightly bent at all times. The last activity I had done was a slow breast-stroke in the pool for 15 mins the day before, and a slow 2 minute cycle home from work for lunch...
I RICE'd it last night and it feels a little better and I notice some minor swelling. Does this sound like something I need to get checked out?
