Suggest Treatment Option For Muscle Spasms

Think i have a charley horse but scared about my ACL I tore it and got it repaired two years ago and it feels fine now. The quad above my knee cap hurts and the scar and region around ACL is fine i think. I can still walk and the hit happened about two hours ago. Ive been icing and using icy hot and I ve been stretching my leg. Should I be ok?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi

Lets hope you are, but I wouldnt just to conclusions this early. Wait for about 3-5 days with the continuous cold compress, elastic bandage and rest. If the pain seems to be subsiding, then great; if not, then please report to an orthopedician for a diagnostic arthroscopy.

Best wishes.
