Have you ever had an injury/felt sick and then googled your symptoms to see if you could figure out the cause? I have. PROTIP: DON'T DO IT.

I've got this big-ass bruise on my knee that's all swollen and tender (it's like a ring of purple circling my knee, it's ~totally badass~), and after googling I'm half-convinced that it's actually a fracture and I'M GOING TO DIE OMG.

Maaaaybe it's time to turn my computer off. brb, icepack

Haha, I did this just yesterday. My thumb has been twitching for the last couple of days, and I googled it, and apparently I have to see a neurologist before I die :P

I hope your knee gets better!

STEP AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER.

Instead, I offer the time honored advice of P.E. teachers and coaches everywhere. 'Just shake it off. You'll be all right.' lulz, okay maybe not.

Try putting some liniment on it.

I DO THIS ALL THE TIME!

It's probably not a good idea since I'm already a bit of a hypochondriac...

Augh, I do this too AND IT'S NEVER A GOOD IDEA

Hopefully there's nothing seriously wrong with your knee!
