Looks like either where the two leg bones meet, or between kneecap and bone. Either that, or it's a plumber bending over underwater... ;D

Looks very similar to the video my son got of his knee when he got an ACL replacement....complete with screws !

Reminds me of Jupiter/Venus/one of those gassy planets. ::)

Either that, or it's a plumber bending over underwater...


That's disturbing.

Hmmm... gassy planets, plumber's butt....LOL!! :D
You're familiar with the term "plumber's butt" or "plumber's crack"? Refers to the unwelcome sight of some overweight guy in old jeans and no belt, crouching or bending as he works. In my line of work, I've also seen plenty of electricians and carpenters put on similar displays... awful.

Thanks for the link:)
The simple fact is, i wont know for a couple of weeks if it helped. Until the initial pain, of which there isnt much has worn off and full movement is regained, i wont know if it needs further treatment. I hope it doesnt.

Its too bad you had to go through all that.  I tore all of the stuff in my knee and opted not to have surgury and just rehabilitated it instead.  I was on crutches for about 5 months but never got cut open, which is a good thing because they would have never let me in the military if they knew how much damage I have in there!

When I first saw it, I thought you meant, going into yourself through naturally occuring arpeture between the back of your legs :P! But alas, twas only two very interesting bones, which are pretty cool. You can see how that gel stuff sort of lubricates the joints (someone correct me if I'm so incorrect its funny.)  
Thanks for posting that!!
