What can cause swelling and itching on the legs after twisting the knee?
Patient: I TWISTED MY KNEE WHEN MY KANE SLIPPED WHEN I HIT A WET SPOT ON CARPORT. FELT LIKE MY WHOLE BODY TWISTED. LEGS KEEP SWELLING AND FEEL MORE LIKE A CARPET BURN AND ITCHES. I DID NOT FALL BUT CAUGHT MYSELF ON POLE ON CARPORT. ALL MY WEIGHT WENT ON LEFT LEG. Doctor: Hi,  It may be due to minor contusions or ligament injury associated with twisted knee.  As a first line management, you can take analgesics like Acetaminophen or Tramadol for pain relief. Apply ice packs also.  If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedician and get evaluated.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
