Twisted knee?My husband twisted his knee today. What is the proper way to treat it at home?
- ninamcguinness
I would ice it, and then bandage it. It's important to keep the swelling down, otherwise it will make difficult to walk. For pain, i would recommend Advil, since it is an anti-inflammatory.
Hope he feels better soon.

the proper way to treat a twisted knee is to walk it off and ice it for 15 minutes while it is elevated. it would be best to ice it before you sleep that way you will not walk on it.

Tell the truth. He was talking trash and you had to teach him a lesson didnt you?
Keep it elevated, apply ice as much as possible and wrap it up in a bandage to keep it from moving about. It should be okay in a few days. If not, put him down.Or take him to the the doctor. Whichever is cheaper.
Good luck.

Put ice one it for the first 24 to 48 hours then heat. Keep it elevated and stay off of it. If it is not better in a few days seek medical help.

Ok, well he should probably not over use it. Umm, he should ice it for 20 minutes per hour. If it does not go down you may want to go to a doctor. I thought that was all I did, and I tore my meniscus. But don't panic. give it a day or so and if the swelling doesn't go down see a doctor. Hope that I helped
