Two days ago my bf got up on a strange way and his knee hurted in that moment. And yesterday in the morning while he was going to the kitchen he fell on a gorund as he lost strenght in that knee. From then he feels a bit of the pain when he moves it and can't put his weight on it...but it is not swallen or anything strange as that, he just feels a bit of a weakness, its not even hurting as it would be expacted, he sais the bigest thing he feels is just weakness.....can somebody tell me what it is and what he can do? (besides going to the doctor, as he can go only at monday)
Thank you in advance!

before 3/4 months he fell from not well fixed bar while working out on both of his knees. I don't know if it can be related to this but also it happend on both knees! Now only one is hurting him. I also read that for dislocated knee, one of the symptoms is getting swallen - which didn't happen in his case. He just fell now due to the lost of strenght in that leg with knee that felt strange from the day when he got up on it a bit differently then normal. Now he is not in big pain at all....just some kind of discomfort and little bit of weakness in the knee....If anybody has any ideas, please write i would appriciate it so much!

Btw he feel better now, a bit of a pain seems to disapear slowlly and his weakness too.....what could cause this problem for a moment (or 2/3 days as he had it)?

It sounds like the problem is not going to fix itself. Ice, elevation, and an anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen will help the symptoms but only an MRI of the knee will tell the ending of this story.
Good luck!

It sounds like you have fluid on your knee cap and probably a severe bruise.
