A member asked:
I was kicked in knee area. some tenderness with slight pain, but no visible bruising or swelling. range of motion is normal. could this be a fracture?

Knee: Fracture requires significant amount of blunt force. Unless the knee buckled, a cruciate ligament tear will be unlikely. Keep an eye on it, if worse see a surgeon.
