Hello, two weeks ago while playing volleyball, I landed badly and injured my knee. The area around a

Dear Sir/Madam, the knee injury you described, with initial swelling and, especially, the new clicking sounds you hear when walking, suggest there might be involvement of internal structures within the joint, such as a meniscus or a ligament, even without pain upon bending. Although the swelling is reducing and you can walk, the presence of clicking after an injury is not a symptom to ignore and could indicate a lesion that requires evaluation. To reduce the swelling, continue with the R.I.C.E. protocol: Rest (avoid aggravating activities), Ice (apply for 15-20 minutes multiple times a day), Compression (with an elastic bandage, not too tight), and Elevation of the limb when at rest. However, it is essential that you consult a specialist doctor (orthopedist) as soon as possible. Only a thorough clinical examination, and possibly imaging tests like an MRI or ecografy, can provide an accurate diagnosis of the lesion and indicate the most appropriate therapeutic path, whether it be conservative management or an intervention.

Hello, an assessment with a physiotherapist would be the best choice. After that, a MRI could be useful to highlight or exclude possible ligaments or meniscus lesion. To reduce the swelling the best options are ice (10-15min max), compression with a bandage, and elevation of the limb during rest

Hi, is not a very serious injury, such as you are a volleyball player. bend your knee is the right direction, probably you had a knee sprain. Now you have to put ice and then you have to start physiotherapeutic evaluation to reduce you swelling and return to sport

Hi. First, it's a good thing that there's no pain, you can walk and the swelling in gradually reducing. However I advise you to go check the knee in order to know exactly what happened. Continue to not load too much the knee (not jumping, running...), move the knee gently (lying in bed bend and extend the knee and move the foot) to help reduce the swelling. Hope you'll be okay!

Hello there , can I have more info please ? To be sure about your injury is better if you get any of these exams: RX or rmn. If you have more questions or you need more help please don't esitate to write to me. Good luck Saimir Sulaj

hello, how old are you ? use a knee brace for a month

Good morning, for the swelling you can apply ice several times a day. I recommend a specialist consultation (physiotherapist or orthopedist) to assess the injury and determine the most appropriate treatment. If you need anything, feel free to contact me.

Hey, to give you an opinion we need an assessment in presence trought some specific orthopedic tests to understand where the cliking comes from. Anyway, to reduce the swelling you could put ice (ten minutes not directly on the skin), than you can call a colleague PT to have an opinion. Regards

Hi I’m sorry about the injury, but the fact that you’re able to walk without pain and bend your knee is a good sign. However, the swelling indicates that there’s still some inflammation going on, and those “clicks” you feel may be related to a slight internal imbalance, possibly due to fluid or small joint movements. To reduce the swelling, you can continue with the usual measures: apply ice for twenty minutes a couple of times a day, keep the knee elevated, and possibly use an elastic compression bandage, but without tightening it too much. Avoid pressure and sudden movements. In any case, an osteopathic or medical evaluation could help analyze and highlight whether there’s any involvement of the internal structures of the knee.

Hello! Probably it's a distortion! The clicking sounds might be due to the swelling. When you move the knee the fluid tends to get around the joint and it could produce the sounds! Anyway i suggest you an MRI!

Good morning, to reduce the swelling, you could apply ice to the area for 15 minutes and then remove it, repeating the process at least 4-5 times. However, given the persistent swelling in the knee, we recommend undergoing an MRI scan to check the condition of the ligaments and meniscus, which could be causing this inflammation when walking and putting weight on the knee. Have a nice day.
