Natural treatment for knee injury
Rest your leg as much as your can by lying down and putting it up on some pillows or by cutting down strenuous activities.
Crush some ice cubes, fill them in a plastic bag and apply them on the affected knee for at least 10 to 15 minutes 3 to 4 times everyday.
Tie the injured knee lightly with a cloth or an elastic bandage and keep it elevated on a stool. This will reduce swelling and pain.
Get a comfortable pair of shoes so as to provide support to your knee rather than increase the pain.
Make a warm paste of turmeric, wheat and castor in goat's milk or clarified butter and apply it to your knee 2 times a day. You can also apply turmeric powder and clarified butter and wrap your knee with a cloth to maintain heat. Change the dressing twice a day and continue it for 3 to 4 days.
In 1 cup of warm milk, add ½ tsp of turmeric powder and drink it once in the morning after your breakfast and once before going to bed at night.
If you are overweight, losing some pounds is a great idea as it will prevent your knee form carrying extra weight.
