Knee Injury

I know what you’re thinking: “Avi, another injury? Jeez, what did you do this time? Was it sparring? Did you try to get off the shomen again?” Nope, I just got off the couch and somehow dislocated my kneecap; I know, so fun.

I was just lying on the couch. I had just finished my history midterm, and I realized I needed to finish my math, so I swung my left leg up to get off, and “POP,” I felt my knee shift back and forth, and then it hurt really, REALLY bad. Luckily, after like 5 hours in the ER, we know that it is not broken just sprained but I am in a knee immobilizing brace for 3 weeks. So far, I can say that stairs suck, ice packs and Tylenol are my best friends, and that I wish I didn’t sleep in the attic.

My current Challenge progress as of November 3, 2026.
