What Is The Treatment For Pain And Swelling In Knee?

Hi, I fell very hard on my knee five days ago. Right away it swelled right up and I had tons of fluid around the knee. I went to the DR, he said it wasn t broken just badly bruised. However it still hurts and now there is just a large goose egg on my knee. What can I do to prevent from hurting and how do I get rid of the goose egg? How long will it take for it to heal completely? I have to work for 6 hours in 4 days...

first of all u need anti inflammatory i suggest Alphintern 3 times a day
for the egg use cold application if you are in first 3 days , hot application after that
if pain persists then do an MRI cuz falling on knees can cause meniscal tear
so i recommend rest
Good Luck
