A member asked:
Can you tell me how can i know what kind of knee injury?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need more details: Hard to answer without knowing how you hurt your knee. If you fell or sustained a traumatic event such as a twisting injury, it would be important to be seen soon to eval for a fracture or ligament injury. Without trauma, you have more time to see if it gets better with ice, rest and some anti-inflammatory meds.
