I have a 3" scar that runs down the outside of my right knee from where a line cook opened an under counter drawer into the outside of my knee and had my knee cap sitting on the inside of my leg. I was laying on the floor of the line cursing like a sailor in an open kitchen on a semi busy Wed night. One of the cooks helped me pop my knee cap back in place. 2 surgeries later to repair the ligaments and cartalige I am able to walk with only a slight limp, I like to think of it as a "swagger" though. I actually worked for 6 months on the knee 12-14 hours a day while I was waiting for the docs to approve the first surgery. While I was waiting I had the knee drained what seemed like monthly and that was actually more painful than the injury itself.
