What Causes Pain Above The Knee After Getting Hit?
Hello Yesterday while playing football, i got hit on my left thigh a little above the knee, when the player kicked his kneee into the thigh. Well its very painful and i can barely bend my legs as it pains. Please tell me what has happened, and how do i cure it?
The impact could have caused an injury to any of your ligaments in the knee which will require a few physical maneuvers to be conducted by a doctor and possibly even an MRI of the knee. There will also be a requirement of an xray of the region to make sure all the bones in the region are all well.
Best wishes.
