Suggest Remedy For Bruised Knee
my daughter is 15 and plays varsity soccer and basketball. She complained about her right knee hurting and then it switched to her left. I think that s just compensation from one to the other. We took her to an orthopedist and he said she had a bruised knee and that ice, ibuprophen an rest. He also said she should play on it as much as she could bear. does she need another opinion or maybe an mri?her knee is somewhat swollen
