I can barely bend my knee after what I think was over extending it and maybe straining my hamstring. Should I call it or ride through?

STOP!

Ive had my knee muscle torn apart and several head injuries, if you go back skiing now you arent going to have a fun time in the slopes anyway....

For sure call it and have a good summer d00d.

Get your knee checked out if you don't see improvement in a few days. Don't want to scare you, but knee injuries can be a lot worse than they feel.

I dislocated my hip and was back on skis in 3-5 weeks. The doctor told me not to do sports for 8 weeks but he's only a doctor :D I feel if it hurts, definitely stop but if it heals then get back on the slopes! I was sure after my accident that i wouldn't be able to get back on skis this season but i made it happen. Of course if i had felt pain in my hip or was scared of going skiing with it i wouldn't have gotten back but i felt fine. I didn't do anything crazy but i set a goal to myself to get back before the season ended.

Speedy healing to you!

One time I put a phone charger in my mouth while it was plugged into the wall and it tasted sour

I didn't get it checked out, but I've been keeping a compression wrap on it. I'm headed up Saturday so we'll see how it goes.

I often put pins in the outlet next to me in my math class so I have an excuse to go to the nurse and leave class. I've done it 9 times so the teacher is starting to get suspicious
