Question: I pulled a patient with the sheets and my kneepoped and now is filled with blood

Hello
I am a nurse. I pulled a patient towards me, and my knee poped. Now is filled with blood. Can pulling someone or something heavy tear your acl up?

Answer:

I have allways taken care of my back during patient care but I never heard anything about knee injuries. How long will this put me down for? Showld I claim workmans comp Am I going to have to be retrained in another kind of job?
