I fell onto knee two days ago, it it swollen twice the size of the other, hurts to bend, but not that bad to walk on once I get going plus it feels like there is a lot of fluid under the skin, I have an ace bandage on it, I ve been icing it and taking NSAIDs, is this sufficient treatment for know?
Hello have read your query. Knee effusion can be due to internal ligament injury. I will advise you MRI knee and clinical examination. If required knee aspiration may be required. I hope I have answered your questions. If you have further questions please feel free to contact us. I will be happy to answer. Take care.
