How To Overcome The Tenderness Of Knee Cap Caused Due To A Fall?
Hi, i fell directly on my right knee about two weeks ago. I am a 20 yr old male. There was no swelling or brusing but my knee cap was tender. Now, it feels like the inside of my knee is dull/numb. I have no pain while weight bearing if i do get a pain its a slight irratation while going up or down stairs, but barely even then.Curently ive been icing, resting, and doing quad excercise and they seem to help but i want to know if the weird feeling i have is contributed to anything .Thanks in advance

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
It does not seems any thing wrong with the knee cap, If I would be your doctor then I would surely advise you for wearing the knee brace of stoking it is okay if you do not take any medicine for this, I am sure this will come around soon without any problem have nice day.
