Knee injury: Restart exercise if pain has resolved and there is full range of motion at the knee.

OK to resume : If the pain is gone, it should be ok to resume activities such as the treadmill. You suffered a knee contusion. I would continue taking advil (ibuprofen) prior to working out and ice after if you are having any pain or swelling. If the knee continues to bother you, see an orthopaedic surgeon.
