      Nothing like that. It kinda got painful gradually, like stomach ache that steadily got worse over night. It got very hard to walk.

      Didn’t show anyone either, so my dad thought i was pretending when I said i felt ill the morning afte. Had to go to school. Still didn’t wanna show it and just hoped it would pass. It didn’t. Had to call grandma to come pick me up from school. Took maybe 10 days or so for the swelling to go down.

      2/10, highly recommend
