What can i do if my knee made a loud cracking noise then i had massive pain and swelling. help!?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
RICE: Rest, ice, compression (wrap it), elevation. May want to visit your friendly neighborhood rehab doctor (physiatrist) for some medicine, physical therapy, maybe an injection, & possibly an MRI if it doesn't quiet down.
