What's up near my knees?

Today I went ice skating with my sister and her boyfriend. I fell firm on my knee. When I did it, it hurt a bit and my sister helped me off the rink and I sit out for the rest of the session. When we got home I looked at my knee it was swollen, sore to touch and I couldn't put your foot on it at all. Now the swelling has gone down loads but I still can't walk on it. The backache is still really bad, i've taken some painkillers, but they don't seem to have worked. I took a picture of it; http://img223.imageshack.us/img223/1672/... What do you mull over could be wrong with it? Broken link sorry. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/76/215030879_62d5764dc1.jpg?v=0 <--What my knee looks similar to at the moment
Best Answer: RICE Rest Ice it 10 minutes every hour. Make sure to put somthing between the ice and the skin Compression is probably not a good ideal until you see a doctor. I would budge to the Emergency room tonight. The patella is floating above the joint and if something is chipped or broken it can cause more pain and inflammation by man pressed into a nerve plexus or ruptured a bursae area. Elevation is a must. Above the heart. Avoid stimulating foods or drinks and alcohol. ex: coffee, sodas and sugary drinks Stay hydrated. Foods can be used as meds to ease misery and swelling grapes, cucumber, watermelon, pineapple, apples, bananas, olives Arnica gel and caps are good extra vit c too. You should go to the emergency room
