I need some help on these case studies we were given to revise from.
There are 8 in total, all representing a injury which the patient has suffered, but we are given very vague details which we must ensure we question in the subjective part of the assessment.
If someone could give me some guidance on what there clinical impression is regarding these case studies please.

2. Rugby player sustained a painful twist of their left knee on week ago reports knee pain and stiffness.
