Xray required;apply blended onion with salt locally

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I am sorry for the accident you had.

If it happened a few weeks ago, and you are still having swelling around your knee that will limit the movements; then, I highly recommend to run xray of the knee to see damages there.

For the moment, I advise to apply blended a mixture of blended onion with salt locally to reduce swelling.

Wish fast recovery!
