You def. need to go to the doc. it really bothers me when my dbf hurts himself so bad he can barely move and then refuses to go. Give your gf some peace of mind and go.

Cheryl if he won't go to the ER make sure he is icing it for 20 minutes every hour.

I'm taking my mom for surgery to replace both knees next Tuesday. She fell on both her knees and said they were ok. Well guess what they weren't. Tell him to go see a doc.

Blue ice does not penetrate deep enough to help. What you need to do is get a styrofoam cup & fill it almost to the top with water. When it is frozen cut part of the cup off & have him ice his kneee with that.
If not he had betetr see a doctor first thing in the morning.

Both my knees are shot from all the years working in a factor. Get your butt to the doctor. Knee injuries do not go away, they just get worse!!!

First off, if he hurt it at work, he needs to contact work first and see what they have to say.. the first thing docs here do when you hurt something like that, is ask if you got hurt at work..and if the person says yes, they will not work on them.. because, most of the time, workmans comp will not pay for the doc of your chosing, and prefer you go to a doc of thier choosing.. so I would call his work, let them know that he was hurt on the job, ask where should he go, if they have a prefered doc, and go there.. or some workman's comps will not pay your docs bills because you didn't follow the rules. Just a small bit of advice :)
