All kinds of bits and pieces can get caught in a zipper.

And that's boys AND girls!!!

Would icing it help? Or some ibuprofen?

Whatever you do, I hope the pain goes away!

I took one an hour ago, it's starting to help.

I just hope it doesn't get any worse, my Mom had it to start with, and now she has both artificial knees.

Thanks so much, Peggy.

Stay off your knees as much as possible.

Hope you feel better very soon.
