How can I make my knee hurt less?

) | asked May 2nd, 2009 | 8 responses | “Great Question” (0

So at lunch yesterday, I was playing volleyball with my friends. The ball was heading my way and I went for it, but tripped over a bush and fell on the asphalt, ripping my jeans and skinning my knee. It didn’t hurt too much the rest of the day (even after track practice), but today it HURTS. Is there anything I can do for it?

listen to Judi (9049) and work it do not let it stiffen up or it will get worse and if possible go see your doctor. It may have a fracture.

try buying a self adjusting knee brace. i have one by MUELLER. got it at walmart or walgreens. a good one might run you $12.00 like mine. its 50%neoprene, 20% nylon, 15% metal, 10% polyester and 5% rubber. i love it. i walkaround with it for a few hours and take it off and it takes the pain away for a long time. just dont go to sleep with it on. you’ll stop you circulation.

Thanks for all the answers! Ice helped a lot, and I’ve been wraping it, too.
