Less then a week ago (on saturday), I was
playing hockey and went into the boards
quite hard, knee first.
I suffered from a bruised quadricep muscle
(musclevastus medialis) on my right leg,
suckers in this picture:

the bruised quadricep immediately began to
swell and I could had a limp for two
days.
As of yesterday (wednesday, 4 days after
the injury) I could walk without pains and
currently my conscern is with a
popping/snapping in my knee that is taking
place near the area in which my finger is
pointing in the following picture:

the popping/snapping occurs when I fully
extend my leg and as I start to bend my
knee, it snaps. So as my leg is in the
picture, when I just barely start to bend
my knee, a little snap happens and you can
literally feel it occuring. There is no
pain when doing this.
I have been told that this perhaps may be
the cartilage that is hardened after the
injury and the snap/popping will go away
shortly. Can anyone confirm this as true
or is this a problem I should have checked
out? Thanks.
