Q:

Over the last couple of weeks I have noticed my left knee is extremely swollen. It hurts after sitting crossed legged for too long and it's becoming uncomfortable to walk on. Went to the health center once and was told to ice it, but the last couple days when I went to ice it, I don't feel any cold sensation on my knee at all. What should I do?

 

A:

Since the inflammation, pain and swelling is persisting, you need to return for reevaluation, preferably by our sports medicine specialist, Dr. Tom Schneider.  You can call 650-3400 for a same day appointment.
