  • Answer:

    Well good news is your kneecap is probably not broken, I've cracked my kneecap in half twice and broken off a piece of my femur (the thigh bone) along with it. To me, it sounds like you have a bad sprain, considering that you could walk on it. I'm no doctor though and you should definitely get it checked out as soon as possible or it could get worse and you could hurt yourself more.
