What Is The Remedy For Knee Pain After An Injury?
I hit the dead center of my knee cap about as hard as you could imagine hitting it against the edge of a metal door frame at work. I can barely walk, my knee is swollen and hot to touch and pain is unbearable in my knee when I bend or unbend my leg.What could I have done?

Dear Friend.
Welcome to HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I understand your concern.
I would advise you following :
1. A pain killer with anti inflammatory action like Tab Zynase D twice a day for 5 days.
2. Volini gel locally 3-4 times a day
3. Hot fomentation.
I suppose you will get relief by this.
But an Xray / MRI is advisable to see for any fracture / ligament tear.
If you have any further query, you may please ask me.
Stay Healthy
