What Is The Treatment For Knee Numbness And Pain When Touching?

I fell on a tile floor directly on my knee. It hurt a great deal and I put ice on it. After awhile it didn't hurt but there is an area on the side and below the knee that is numb. It doesn't hurt to walk but there is pain to the touch in the area where I fell.

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that there is some crack fracture of the tibia, or femur, or may be a soft tissue injury.
I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis. You may need to have a M.R.I. for confirmation.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and sea foods till the pain subsides.
Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts,and
protein rich foods for faster recovery.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.

Hi, thank you for asking Healthcare magic.
The symptoms you feel are probably as a result of an inflammation following trauma. I would suggest you try over-the-counter non steroidal anti inflammatory drugs like Ibuprofen or aspirin if you are not a gastritis patient.

I hope that answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. We will be delighted to answer more questions from you.
I wish you good health
