Well...the sad truth is: I have MRI conformation since Friday that my meniscus, patella tendon and quadriceps muscle are all torn and in desperate need for surgical intervention...
The other truth is: I didn't realize I am posting that photo where my rapped knee would be visible...but now - might as well I can announce: next week I will be going "under the knife" again...Oh well...and MOST IMPORTANTLY: I did not injure my knee or quad while training...Quad tear happened when I was sprinting (yes - running as fast as I could as I was in a hurry to get something for someone...felt super light on my feet so I wanted to test my super-sonic new shoes...)...and knee problem (meniscus and patella tendon) just happened all of a sudden - one day I felt it while I was simply rotating in place with my foot firm on the floor...and later that day it started getting much worse...
Problem is: in US you can't just go to doctors and request MRI...It took me a WEEK to just get MRI scheduled...and due to important week for my company - I don't want to schedule surgery immediately - so I would be "walking funny" all week long hoping that not too many people would notice it...and ask...
