For myself, this somewhat recent injury is my second major one, and the same injury at that. Back when I was ten I managed to sublux my left knee cap during a dance summer school....years down the road it happens again. It is definitely very frustrating, however I have now learned that my left knee needs some 'special' attention.
As 'in shape' as we may think we are, there is really never a guarantee. We must keep working hard, training our bodies to hopefully avoid these mishaps in the future...but also educate ourselves on how to attend to and prevent further problems when they do come up!
