What Causes Severe Pain When Bending After Hit Knee Cap?
Hello, I hit my knee cap yesterday on the corner of my chair and now it hurts when I bend it, I can feel fluid inside and can barely walk on it. It also hurts a lot on the left side of my left kneecap. Can you tell me some possible problems that could be wrong?
I have studied your case with diligence. There i s possibility of bursal injury near knee,leading to swelling.
So I will advise to take an x-ray and MRI knee to see ligament injury. Continue ice fomentation and use knee immobiliser
