What Is The Treatment Of Swelling On Knee If Got Hit ?
after a fall my left inner wrist appears to have a bone sticking up a bit - it is sore
I landed on it when i rolled both ankles and sprained both ankles. I also have swelling above knee cap on right side and swelling in the back of the knee. intermittently i hardly stand sharp into the knee cap
this was 5 days ago should i return to the hospital or dr for further examination - they did not xray my left ankle, wrist or knee

If you are having problem walking then you should get an XRay done of the affected knee. Also, get an XRay of the wrist which doesnt sound like a fracture but it could be a dislocation. With the XRays you should sought the opinion of an Orthopaedician to know exactly what to do. Meanwhile, you should apply crepe bandage or wear knee caps. Also, foamentation with warm water will help ease the pain. You can take anti inflammatory medications like Paracetamol or Diclofenac sodium meanwhile to decrease the pain. Take care,
