Answers:
Hyper-extension is when a joint gets forced the opposite way it normally bends. I'm tall and had a lot of knee hyper-extensions when I played. You get blocked or tackled low, and your knees basically get pushed backwards, without breaking. It hurts and requires a lot of ice for a long time because of joint swelling and ligament pulling, but you should be good to go within a month or so if you stay off the leg when you can.
Hyper extended knee. Hurts like hell, but requires no surgery.
A contusion to the knee resolves quickly. A small sprain can clear up with stretching and medical management in 4-6 weeks. It all depends on the severity of the condition. Simply, the more extensive the injury is, the more time it may take to resolve.
