Heh Ali. Again I am sorry to hear about your knee. I hope you didn't misunderstand my message earlier about the ice. I simply meant that if you have any new swelling and your mom thought it worthwhile to reduce the new swelling without risking further damage to the nerves to put some ice in a towel and put it on the area of swelling for a short period of time. If it is related to the new injury and isn't nerve-related swelling ice is still a good thing but ONLY if it won't affect your nerves. Yes, ice on nerves is a bad thing and does cause permanent long term damage. Sorry, I didn't mean to imply otherwise. It does sound like there is new swelling due to the bruising but yes, I would wait to talk to a doctor about that and then you will know for future reference what to do. That would be the smart thing.

Really sorry to hear about this. We are all here for you as you have been here for us. Thanks and take care. Let us know what happens tomorrow. TTL J
