How can I ease the pain of my bruised knee?

Patient's Query

I fell on my knee and landed on a cement stair corner, it really hurts especially if I try to bend it or sometimes straighten it. It’s tender to the touch and slightly swollen where I hit it and has bruising.

Orthopedic

Answered by Dr. Deep Chakraborty

There could have been the case of the contusion, or even a fracture due to trauma to your knee. I advice seeking medical help from an orthopaedic specialist at once to properly diagnose and treat your injury. Until then, you have to keep off the injured leg and try to pacify it with ice for it to get rid of swelling and pain.

was this conversation helpful?

It is common to be concerned about the plate and wire in your elbow after a fracture surgery. They can sometimes make you feel uncomfortable or limit your range of motion.

I am 15 years old and have had a knee injury for 11 months . It started out as a meniscus injury and that has gotten better. According to my most recent MRI, I have edema , synovitis, and slight injuries to my ligaments. It doesn’t sound severe, but I have difficulty walking normally, and it often cracks, which makes it deteriorate. Also, because of the long duration，my muscles have muscle atrophy. My question is: What do the cracks mean(are they fine or not), and what should I do to recover? Thanks.

Male | 15

Crackling from your knee is fostered by harsh surfaces or air bubbles. Although it’s perfectly normal at times, it could signify a problem if pain or swelling accompanies the snaps. For recovery, gentle exercises along with physical therapy will not only strengthen supporting muscles, leading to better knee stability. Be cautious while moving be sure to stay away from activities that may exacerbate this popping sound. You can also visit an orthopedist.

Sir/madam I am a student,my problem is my little finger joint dislocated it's nearly 20 days ago surgery was done successfully,but my finger is not folding

Male | 19

Your finger is likely struggling to bend properly after the surgery to fix its dislocated state. This issue arises due to swelling or stiffness, which can occur sometimes. To enhance its bending ability, gently move it and follow the exercises suggested by your physical therapist diligently. These exercises aim to strengthen your finger and boost its flexibility gradually.

I am trying to find the starting point to getting my knees replaced

Knee replacement surgery is done to replace the damaged joints so patient is relieved of symptoms. The knee joint with an artificial knee called prosthesis made of metal, plastic, and ceramic. It helps to restore function of the damaged knee and relieve arthritis pain. Knee replacement surgery is advised if the pain is interfering with your daily activities and negatively affecting your quality of life. Types of knee replacement surgery Simultaneous bilateral knee replacement - When both knees are replaced at the same time. The primary advantage of a procedure is that there is only one hospital stay and one rehabilitation period to heal both knees. But rehabilitation may be slower. Also these patients may need assistance at home also. Generalized fitness is important here. Staged bilateral knee replacement- Each knee is replaced at a different time. These surgeries are done a few months apart. This staged approach helps one knee to recover before the second surgery. The main advantage of a this procedure is the reduced risk of complications and also requires a shorter hospital stay. However, since this procedure requires two surgeries, the overall rehabilitation period can be longer.

I am24 year old suffering with back pain

Male | 24

It may have been caused by lifting heavy objects and straining your muscles or having a bad posture. Once in a while, this pain is usually associated with problems in the spine or disks. To help relieve the pain, try doing some mild stretching exercises, using hot or cold packs, and avoiding activities that make it worse. If it doesn’t go away or get any better after a while then I think it would be wise if you consulted an orthopedist about it.

I am 16 years old and in my leg chop stinging

Male | 16

It seems you’re having a sharp pain in your leg, so this can’t be good at all. There could be several causes for a stinging hurt in your leg such as an injury, bug bite, or maybe a pulled muscle. Rest it, put some ice on if it’s swollen, and try to keep your legs up high. If it still hurts after some time or gets worse then you should see an orthopedist as soon as possible.
