Well after pulling a 1953 straight 8 running motor and three speed tranny out of a 94056 mile car,The dummy helper (not me)
Used a chain with a broken end hook on it and the damn thing flung off the backend of wrecker to one side and got me in the leg and pinned me to the GTO.I heard something POP and hurt like hell but able to walk.Only hurts like hell pullin my shoe off,like im pullin everthing from knee down while using my right foot to push off my shoe.No swelling but hot burn feeling.
Any ideas on what i did to it?Anyone else here had similar pain or problem?DON

YEA YEA HALGAR TELL ME BOUT THE LUCK THING AGAIN LOL

I second that Don, get to a Doctor. It sounds like you dislocated something at the very least. Get it looked at sooner rather than later. The longer you leave it, the worse it'll get and your chances of rehabing the injury get smaller with each passing hour.

Yikes! I hope it's not serious. Sounds like some kind of muscle injury like torn ligaments or something.

I know it's expensive down there in the USA, but be safe and go see a doctor!

I would think the last thing you want right now is advice from the internet. Get to a doctor already!

Did and said i disslocated my knee cap and still have a burning sensation in back of upper leg.After pulling on it for 10 minutes it popped back in place.Been getn around fine only put in a tail ligt and sit down all day rebuilt a set of 383 6pack carb setup for a GTX.Now if i could just find a sweet holley carb cheap for my truck,then rebuild the frontend.Still tryn to finish the body work but to much bending at the knees,Kinda hard to do now.
