What Is The Treatment For Pain And Swelling In Knee?
Hi, I fell very hard on my knee five days ago. Right away it swelled right up and I had tons of fluid around the knee. I went to the DR, he said it wasn t broken just badly bruised. However it still hurts and now there is just a large goose egg on my knee. What can I do to prevent from hurting and how do I get rid of the goose egg? How long will it take for it to heal completely? I have to work for 6 hours in 4 days...
