Can my knee become a problem?!
Question: During volleyball season, probably back in mid-October, I slammed my knee on the floor really hard during practice one day. (I was sprawling for the ball, so that means the inside of my knee hit the ground)
Since then, I've been occasionally feeling some pain in that knee. Like right now, I feel a slight stinging, and I'm merely sitting here.
The pain is mild right now... but should I be worried that I'm still feeling some pain?

That little "stinger" you're feeling could cause great difficulty later. (probably sooner than later.) With so much pressure from the body's weight carried by the knees, even healthy knees give out & have to be replaced. I can recall several instances, ( one with my own son) where what appeared to be just a bump or tittle twist, turned out requiring surgery. Your knees are so important to you, I wouldn't play around or assume everything's OK. I'd make an appointment with an Orthopedist ASAP.
