Why Did My Knee Get Locked With A Cracking Sound?

well in my football game i jumped and landed on my knee that was straightened out and i could barely walk after that but then about 5 minutes later the pain went away, now i was playing basketball and i jumped and my knee locked and heard a crack when i locked it, and i couldn't run after that.

Hi
Thanks for posting
I have studied your case and it seems to be meniscus injury in the knee.It needs physical examination along with MRI of knee to confirm.
Hope this helps.
Take care
