Fell on my knee, and it HURTS!?!
Question: Fell on my knee, and it HURTS!!?
Ouch, well today in gym we were playing kickball!.
So as I was running to 1st base, for some reason i tripped and fell really hard on the ground!.
My two knees hurt the most, I was even crying!. :'(
so when I went to the nurse I put ice on both knees!.
The right one hurt the most, and is swollen!.
Know it hurts to walk, hurts in general, and is swollen!.
It also has like a crease in it, sort of!. It looks like its in 2 places!.
My brother says it looks like I split it in half and its broke!.
Right now Im icing it!.

Answers:
You have a contusion (bruise) to the cartilage on the underside of your knee caps!. It will take several weeks for it to heal 100% but you should start to feel improvement in a few days!. Dont try to do anything active for several weeks, until you have no pain going up and down stairs!. If you see no improvement in 7-10 days then you should have your parents take you to see an orthopedic doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
