Knee Pain/ RICE: 34 year old gentleman with history of traumatic injury to knee around 10 days ago. Initial swelling in the knee which has partially resolved however continued swelling and pain has continued. You should visit an orthopaedic surgeon. Your knee stability can be assessed, along with the function of your cruciate ligaments, neuromuscular status, and imaging studies. Rest, ice, wrap with ace, elevate.
