Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

I would like to know a bit more details of how the knee injury occurred, if there a swelling of the joint or not. Please write in detail so that I could suggest you better.

If it is an acute knee injury that you sustained, apply ice locally every 2 hours for the inflammation to subside. You could take Over the counter analgesics like Motrin for relief of pain, if present.

Awaiting your response.

Regards,
