Hi, I got an accidental kick on my knee at football (soccer) last night. I had a lot of pain running just below the kneecap (feels to the touch like something that links the knee and the shin) I stopped running and the pain went, so I played on for 20 minutes without any pain or discomfort. However when I got home, it really hurt, and it now hurts bending, going up and down the stairs and using the brake and clutch pedals in my car. Any idea what it could be and how long the pain will last?
