that sounds very annoying! Will you get it checked out if it doesn't settle?

I guess I won't have much choice, but I have had similar pain before without exercising and it's went on its own - I tore the meniscus sack several years ago while skiing and it's never been the same since.

How long ? Couple of days ? A week ?

Oh no - just RICE for a bit.

It's frustrating but only a blip on the way to graduation!

Be good to yourself and rest it. It's a minor setback. You'll be out there graduating soon enough.😊
