This morning I was on the step ladder (2nd step) and my left foot went straight to the floor, bypassing the 1st step.

Now there is a sore spot on the right side of that left knee. It hurts when I walk, especially when I bend the knee, so I can't walk much at all.

I put some iced wet towels on it, and kept it elevated, but that doesn't help much. How can I reduce the pain to a more manageable level?


I'll probably call the Doc on Mon.
