How To Treat Bruised Leg And Sore Knee?

I fell about a week ago and bruised my right knee. I went to the urgent care center on Sunday they said it was not broken or fractured, but that I had a contusion of my knee. I have been icing it every day. The pain is better and swelling has subsided. I am concerned about the sore/scabbing on my knee. I have been applying vitamin E. What do you recommend to expidite the healing process. It is still very sore.
