Cricket Ball Hit Under Knee. Severe Pain, Limping While Walking. Taking Medications. Duration To Relieve Injury?

hi, My father was hit by a cricket ball under the knee on the outside area 8 days back. he is still having a lot of pain and is limping while walking. he is on chymoral forte and serrazin and also massaging with an ayurvedic oil. please advise if something else needs to be done and how much time does it take to relieve soft tissue injuries.

thank you.
i am very sorry very for your father's condition.
usually simple soft tissue injury become OK within few days.
but it is the knee joint where movement occurs continuously.
so it is better to take some rest for few days.
continue the drug.
i think it will be alright within few days.
I find this answer helpful
