Hello Divas!
Wondering if anyone has had an experience similar to mine yesterday. I had just gotten off the lift and was skiing away and hit a patch of ice/dirt I did not see and the inner edge of my right ski caught pulling my lower leg outwards. I felt pain right away on the outside of my knee and top of outside lower leg. I did not feel or hear a pop. It hurt too bad to keep skiing so I got a ride down from ski patrol. No swelling or bruising yet. It just hurts with walking so I am limping. It really hurts when stepping to the side (towards my righ side) like to get in the car and it hurts on the outside of my knee when standing up off the toilet. I work with a great ortho doc and plan to see him this week. I am hoping I just sprained my knee/pulled a muscle in my lower leg. Totally bummed it snowed last night finally and I can’t get out there! I am not a good inured person. Hoping I can at least use my inside time to clean the condo too to bottom and change the beds. I am still icing every few hours. Hopefully, you are all out there having fun on the mountain wherever you are!
