Knees are bad actually

So, exactly one week ago I slipped and fell on the sidewalk near the central bus station in Jerusalem. It was a pretty bad fall and I was pretty badly bruised, but I soldiered on and waited for it to fade. Now I do Pilates twice a week now so I had to talk to the instructor and figure out a way to keep exercising even with my messed up knee. Not impossible, since my knee is generally messed up, and Pilates instructors are experienced with fucked up joints in general.

Except it's been a week? And it's still pretty badly bruised and hurts a lot if I kneel on it for even a second? Worse than usual. And I think it might be time to see a doctor about it, which I'm :| about because of all the time I've spent lately dealing with medical stuff. But I gotta be sure that it's just nasty bruising and not something worse.

Fuck knees in general.
