Re: soft tissue damage
What part of your knee did you specifically injure?

Re: soft tissue damage
isnt soft tissue damage the same thing as a sprain or something?well if it is u gotta remember that P.R.I.C.E thing -
Protect: Protect the affected part from further injury.
Rest: Stop all activities which cause pain to the sprained area.
Ice: Apply ice to the area several times a day, but never for more than 10-15 minutes at a time. Protect the skin while preventing the swelling.
Compression: Wrap the sprained area to reduce swelling. Cold water will do also.
Elevation: Keep the sprained area as close to the level of the heart as is conveniently possible.
if its not a sprain than my bad

Re: soft tissue damage
A couple of supplements that will help with soft tissue injuries are Wobenzym (sp?) and bromelain. I dealt with tendinitis in my left knee at the end of my career, and these compounds seemed to reduce the inflamation and discomfort. Wobenzym is a brand name, and bromelain can be purchased as a supp, but also is found in whole foods such as pineapples. As previously stated by others, you can't go wrong with ice and rest also.

Re: soft tissue damage
at school we got told to use rice as soon a something happens. rest, ice, elevation compression but if its past that i guess u should just try and stay off it and maybe bandage it up. also try those supplements that some1 said about earlier

Re: soft tissue damage
Tendinitis is a tough one. Unfortunately, most of the time you have to rest it for a few weeks to let it heal. Sometimes, it is a result of the patella not tracking properly, and to solve this you need to strengthen the vastus medialis (the tear-drop shaped muscle just above the knee). Additionally, you can buy a foam roller, which is invaluable in re-lengthening chronic, tight muscle tissue in the hip flexors, glutes and IT Band which also contribute to improper tracking of the patella.
