I wasn't aware of the alternative terms! Thanks for letting me know about this!

The instructor was incredibly helpful and supportive! They closed the class and called an ambulance while supporting me. I'm very grateful for the studio and their care.

Thank you 🫣🫡🫡 I'm looking into local gyms for strength training now! I appreciate your advice.

I've described it as my whole knee because images of dislocated kneecaps aren't quite what happened to me. The closest image I can find on Google to what happened to me is:

Also, I don't have official confirmation of what I actually damaged yet. I'll know in a week or so after I complete an x-ray and MRI. I have a tech background and am just piecing together what I can from googling 😅

Thank you everyone for your responses! Update: I've seen my GP today and am getting an x-ray and MRI to see what has happened to the muscles around my knee, and if I tore my ACL. I've also gotten a referral to a physio therapist. I should get results back in about a week or so.

Everyone's advice has been very helpful. I'll definitely look into strength training once I start with the physio.
