(aleeve ) The pain has gotten worse and it is almost unbearable to walk. Also my foot is almost numb and twice it s normal size. Is this normal?
[|AI|]  Hello, As you had a knee contusion and swelling of the knee for which you kept it elevated, I think this is a venous return issue which happened due to injury.  I will advise you to use a knee brace or a stocking which will help reduce the swelling.  Next, I want u to use icing if you aren't diabetic, but if you are so then using hot water fermentation and keep the leg elevated from the ankle while the knee is in the extended position. Start low-intensity static qua Chat Doctor.  As due to injury there is a possibility of muscle weakness which can aggravate the swelling.  Ankle toe movements are also to be performed as it works like a pumping mechanism. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care Jay In
