Can somebody give me advice knee contusion pain help please?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Ice.: Ice the knee for 20 minutes at a time, 3-4 times per day. Take an over the counter anti-inflammatory medication as well. Hopefully that will ease your pain. If you don't get better in a week, then see a sports medicine knee specialist to see if there may be structural damage.
