Anyone have an idea what knee injury I might have?

I squatted way too low and put way too much pressure on my right leg. Immediately I felt pain and weakness in my knee. It basically gave out on me. This was 2 weeks ago.

I can move laterally just fine. I can jump off that leg just fine.... but if I try to squat on that leg, it hurts pretty badly. If I jump and bring my knees to my chest, my right leg hurts pretty badly. If I try to kneel down or bend my knee past 90 degrees, it hurts pretty badly.

Anyone know what's up?

There's a term for that... the "loading" of the muscle?

Basically, the muscles you use to 'slowly' go down the stairs?

I think about it every time I go down the stairs and I can't ever think of the name of the movement

Where does it hurt? Medial, lateral, under the kneecap, deep in the back of the knee?

When it hurts does it affect stability at all of the joint?is there any range of motion that is restricted by something other than pain?

The "your pussy hurts" joke is already covered. Now all we need is an AIDS post and we can call it a day

Side note, if it is meniscus, I just had one cleaned out in October and the other scheduled for December. SUPER easy surgery -- all conservative management failed. Wasn't down and out long at all and my back muscle spasms hurt more than my knee ever did after surgery. If it's suggested to you don't hesitate.

Its hard to pinpoint exactly, but it is definitely on the back of the knee. Probably more on the medial side.

The pain is non-existent except for when I bend my knee past 90 degrees. When I do that, though... it is really bad and I basically can't hold myself up unless I shift my weight to my other leg.

Like I said, I can still move laterally and jump off that leg, no problem, no pain whatsoever. But if I bend that knee much, the pain is bad.

Meniscus. Good luck. Hurt mine on June second, still can't go too far past 90 degrees without some pain.

I jumped off a cobia tower into shallow water

Damn. I hope mine isn't that bad. I sprained my MCL really badly 7 years ago and the pain was much much much worse. I couldn't do anything for months and even once I was cleared to play sports, I wasn't the same for a while.

It's frustrating because I feel like I'm basically 100 percent fit and healthy in my leg except for squatting deep. It is so tempting to keep playing sports and whatnot. I really hope it is just a minor sprain or something.
