That's the thing, I did go to the ER the night I hurt it. They took an Xray and said that it was just sprained/strained.
I can bend the knee now, but I've got some seriously not-fun-at-all pain radiating thru my leg to the point where I cant sleep at night now. I've been paying attention to where the pain seems to be coming from and figured out it's the fibula (was thinking tibia because I forgot which bone was which down there until I wikipedia-ed it today)
I either hurt the fibula or did something to the meniscus in the knee...I have a lot of similar symptoms to my aunt's knee, she has a torn meniscus and is grinding bone-on-bone now. (hope that's not the case with me)
It's hurt all day today, just as much as it was last night when it wouldnt let me sleep. I just want to make sure it's not damaged any worse than I thought it was when the ER let me go 2 weeks ago after xraying me.
