2 1/2 weeks later - that knee of mine is still swollen.
It still looks like a grapefruit. MRI tests came back negative for any cartilage tearing so no need for surgery :) but apparently there's been a lot of bony abrasion from dislocating my kneecap leading to bad swelling.

I currently am wearing a brace to keep my leg straight and will do so for at least another week. I ice my knee as often as possible.

It doesn't seem like it's ever going to get better at this point. I'm pretty down about it. I've been active my entire life. :(
