How Can Extreme Pain In Knees Be Dealt With?
Came off a Segway on Saturday. Fell sideways on my knee then onto my back. Initially there was a lump on the side of my knee but I applied a cold pack several times and this subsided within 24 hours. I could walk after the accident but it was very painful. During Sunday my calf began to swell up and remains so today (Monday) despite continuing to apply cold. Walking still painful, from the calf as much as, if not more than, the knee. There is no pain when resting the leg.
