Suggest Treatment For Knee Pain Caused After An Injury
Today at my job I tripped over a cord and fell pretty hard on my right knee. It doesn t hurt to walk on it, but if I turn a certain way or go up stairs it hurts. I can bend it a little but not all the way. Did I bruise it badly or do I need to go in and have it xray?

Yes needs an examination by a orthopaedic surgeon with Xray, need to see if there is collection of blood in the knee or crack fracture etc and after correct assessment it should be treated
