Injured Kneecap After Falling, Vein Popped. Tingling, Coldness In Leg. Anything Serious?
I fell and hit the inside of my knee . Jut to the left of the knee cap (from my point of view). It looks like a vein popped up and now there is a small red line and looks like a pool of blood is forming underneath. I m also experiencing tingling and slight coldness in my whole leg below the knee and in the foot am I just panicking or is this something serious? Thanks!

HI, welcome to HCM
Injury to knee with tingling in lower part below knee suggest injury to sural nerve. It is around lateral bone that is fibula. There is very less chance that vein get affected at that point. As there is no major vein.
I would suggest you must consult board certified orthopedician and get examined properly. If adivised then also get your MRI knee done.
Thanking you.
