How To Heal Knee Injury?
Hi, I m a trail runner and recently hurt my left knee. I ve completely stopped running for the past two weeks, taking anti-inflamitory, ice, etc. Yesterday the area that is hurt started itching and today there is a rash in the spot. I ve always been able to work through running injuries but I ve never had one that is ichy and developed a rash on the skin. Suggestions? Thank you.

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to the injury.
I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain.
I also recommend using ice compresses at the are of the injury.
The area should be immobilized to prevent further damage.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
