A member asked:

I fell on my knee two days ago, and it instantly started to hurt. i had no signs of bruising or swelling until today. my knee throbs. should i be concerned about the late bruising? or is that a normal timeline? also, how should i treat the pain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

The best thing is to get it X-rayed to exclude a fracture. If negative then local heating pad and ibuprofen will help till the blunt injury heals. Hope you feel better.
