Dumb Knee

Well, my last day of summer classes was ruined because my knee decided to malfunction. It started to hurt during dance team this morning while we were doing stunts. After we were done with the jazz part, we moved on to ballet, which I sat out most of the class. It hurt to bend my knee, so I couldn't jump or turn. Then I took a 4 hour relaxation period, in which I did homework and went to Michelle's to help her find a song to sing for an audition. Then I went to dance. I was only able to warm up because my knee hurt to bend. Well, once we got to turns, my knee stopped hurting when I bent it, so I tried a few turns. After doing a few, my knee suddenly locked, and I couldn't straighten it without being in pain. So I sat out the rest of jazz class. I wasn't planning on doing ballet, just sit there and watch, but my teacher said to go home and ice my knee. So I went home. Brooke and Dad told me to go swimming, so I did and my knee felt a little better. Soon after, however, my knee hurt to do anything. So now I'm limping around the house in pretty much severe pain (only when I move my knee or put pressure on it). I do beleive, I put this pain upon myself. I think that my knee swelled under the knee cap from not doing dance for 6 weeks and then going into over 10 hours of dance a week. I guess I won't be doing that again. Well, that's it for now.
