Knie, Elbogen, Haar, Auge, & Augenbraue

Ok, so I am not the most graceful person in the world.

Wednesday at 6:00 a.m. the phone rang. I woke up and tried to hurry down the stairs to grab it. I totally and completely fell down the stairs. I landed face down with my legs twisted weirdly behind me. The phone stopped ringing.
I had a sprained (again!!!) ankle and a bruised knee. I laid still on the floor whimpering for about two whole minutes.

Nearly three days later and I am still limping from my ankle and my knee is SO MESSED UP!

My right knee is swollen. There is a line (about an inch in height) across my knee that is NUMB. Totally and completely numb. When I bend my leg it feels as if I have a Band-Aid on (weird tight pulling feeling). But if I kneel down or touch my knee too hard or hit it (accidentally, of course) it HURTS!!! It feels like a rubberband being snapped across my knee.
Also, there is a line of squishiness where there is supposed to be hard bone. ???
What does that mean? Did I mush up part of my kneecap?

Either way... it hurts.
