I Am a Klutz

Friday was the first time I had worn a certain pair of leggings since I fell and scraped the heck out of my knee around my birthday, and just as my luck would have it, I fell against the curb and did the same thing. There was blood this time and it still got infected, but it's thankfully not nearly as bad as it was back in June.

Though now I'm afraid to wear that pair again, I'm starting to think they might be cursed. XD

Ouch, I hope that you're okay now

@Sapio It hurts to keep my leg in one position for more than a minute or so, but beyond that and a bruise on my other knee, it's doing a lot better than last time. I think it might have something to do with it not being as humid right now and less of a time gap between falling and getting it cleaned up.

@ScrewThisImDone unfortunately there's likely to be some minor swelling along with the bruising, hence the pain felt when you put your leg in a certain position, most likely straight.

@Sapio I landed right on my knees on the curb, so I'd be more surprised if there weren't bruising. I put something that's supposed to help [i]relieve[/i] pain on it and now the whole area burns like a bitch. But it does help soothe it for a while afterwards.

@ScrewThisImDone alternate ice and heat for ten minutes at a time. It should help.
