How To Treat Large Scar And Pain On Knee Caused After Injury?
Hi. I fell on my knee a week agot. Large scrape now healing. However, it really hurts to touch. It stings all the time. No visible bruising, but lots of pain. This has never happened after prior injuries - which happened when I was younger... Any ideas?

Thanks for posting to hcm,
I think the smell can be mostly due to infection causing pus while healing which are mainly dead healing cells.
In such case you can take antibiotics like amoxycillin
