Question: Would like some advice as to what i may have done? thanks?

I was subject to a high challenge at football on the weekend,(keeper two footed my knee) it was bleeding from the obvious challenge, however the next day i couldn'nt bear weight on that foot, it has swollen up and is warm to touch and tender,
Its starting to bruise also.

I will give a link to a photo if that helps.
Any help will be appreciated,
I may go to the physio at academy if it stays bad,

I suggest you go to the physio at the academy and let him start early treatment. It will probably need some help before it starts to repair itself.

It sounds like you may have contused and/or sprained your knee, although I am not sure what the mechanism of injury was (someone "two footed" your knee??) You may have damaged one of the ligaments or injured the meniscus. If so, it would be prudent to make sure that the damage is not one that requires more serious intervention. There may be an hairline fracture to any of the knee bones that needs to be ruled out with an x-ray.

I would strongly recommend running it by your health care professional in order to get proper care as early as possible.

Hope you feel better.

well i think its either internally bleeding or you ripped a tendent
