Knee injury: Could be a contusion. This can be just a superficial, or deep bruise all the way to the bone. Cartilage can be bruised, scuffed, or even torn. Ligaments can also be stretched or torn. The bone itself can be chipped or broken. If your pain persists, request an MRI to confirm the diagnosis.
