Get to casualty. We are not doctors and even if we were, could not reliably diagnose you from here.

No point rsking it.

Prob a torn synovial fluid sack which is full of fluid and causes ballooning....maybe torn cartilage as a result of that ??? Without MRI scan they will pull it about to test stability but won't do anything until swelling has gone down and they can assess it.

Having been on the end of 2 ruptured cruciates and torn cartilage twice iv had all kinds of pops and odd sounds from my knees

Yeh sounds about right mate, worst case ruptured plc or acl and an op and 9 months Physio!

MRI scan will let u know the score and next action required with it
