Marshalee don't take ibrufen (not good for high blood pressure)...take 
glucosamine for your knees and when it is swollen some ice will help?

I had the same...running... to get the train...my knees were swollen the other 
day  ...it takes time...really.

  Hi! Anyone have any suggestions for a sore and swollen knee? 
  I think I sprained the darn thing when my Pug wanted to go out in the middle 
of the night, and in the dark I stepped on a bit of dog chewy. That hurt my 
wonky foot, so I stepped off it quickly, and came down funny. 
  This was a couple of weeks ago, and since then it pops and snaps, and it 
hurts like holy hanna when it does! 
  I have been keeping the hot pad on it and taking Ibuprofen occasionally. 
  Seems to be the ligamenty thing that holds the kneecap on, as the pain isn`t 
deep in the joint. Ideas??
