Hi I m a dancer and in my routine I have to fall on my knee. When I fell on my knee last it was very painful and I found a lump or goose egg forming there almost immediately. Now there is. Bruise around the lump and hurts to kneel on it. Is this a serious injury? How can I treat this?

yes,it is somewhat a serious injury.You need to avoid falling on your knee and avoid activities that are painfull.It would be good if you take rest for already 3 days.You need to apply ice around the lump and over the counter ointment like soframycin.Wear knee pad if at all you want to dance
