While I was almost running. I knocked my foot on a pavement and fell, my face facing the ground, but luckily I managed to protect my self with my hands. I thus fell on my palms but due to the slippery road I skidded and since I was wearing shorts I scratched my left knee. It's almost three days now and the bruise has clotted well but I feel pain when I walk and stretch my leg. May be the blood clotting stretches with any movement. Is there something I can do at home to take care or please advice?

You have knee joint injury and it needs immediate arthroscopic check up and repair if needed. Till you can go to hospital you can rest at home with hot water bag and without moving the joint.
