Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi,

Please do not do it again as soft tissues in your knee get torn or sprained.

It may be simple rubbed between two bony parts or meniscal tear.

Avoid any exercise till 15 days.

Till then have tab. aceclofenac+ serratiopeptidase combination three times a day.

Apply hot packs.

Thanks,

Dr. CHANDER MOHAN SINGH.
