Hello! I fell on my right knee about 2 weeks ago. Pretty good bruise and abrasion. I now have a scab and black and blue but the one side of my knee cap is very sore. Almost numb until it is touched. I have no problem walking/bending, but not on that knee. I iced it immediately which was smart to do as it helped with swelling A LOT. BUT, the numbing is puzzling me.
Hello, Nothing much to worry as is quite common after trivial injury. It will settle by itself with conservative management. As a first line of management you can take analgesics like Acetaminophen or Diclofenac for pain relief. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
