About 4 years ago I was skiing and fell really weird, the doctors told me I had crushed cartilage in my knee, and ever since then it hurt to go hiking-only downhill.
This year I took it slow, only did little hikes and it was totally fine! I was super pumped, but then 2 days I was on a really muddy trail and slipped. I didn't fall but caught myself weird, and felt something in my knee move. It felt like a tendon or something, like an elastic band in my knee slipped out of place. It hurt a bit going the rest of the way down, but the next day it's been my ankle hurting? What did I do? I'm going to be getting a knee brace today, but do I now need an ankle brace too? Also, do you think it's something I should see the doctor about, or will some rest help it? I was going to go on a hike today too but I don't want to hurt it more
