I was spraying Febreze because I like to refresh the house due to having doggies and such. Well, it made the floor slippery. Usually when this happens, I catch myself. But for some reason my balance was already off from just having equilibrium problems in general due to sinusitis. So, I fell right onto my left knee. If I hadn't fell onto my knee and then the floor flat, I more than likely would have hit my head or some other vulnerable body part. My knee hurt a good bit but mostly on the top where the skin is. It felt like my knee was burning a bit. To make matters worse it threw my equilibrium way off. I was severely dizzy and nauseous. I had to sit down after getting up and drink some drink and try to ground myself. This was a VERY unpleasant experience. My mom was freaking out in the midst of all this because we've had a family member fall in the past and it was traumatizing because of what exactly happened. So, I had to tell her to calm down and take a nerve pill (literally because she and I have bad nerve/anxiety problems) and she finally calmed down but apparently, she didn't sleep well because she was worried about me. Even my dogs were worried about me. I woke up and it's just a little sore. Which is honestly a miracle because I have a lot of weight. It shook me up quite a bit but ultimately, I think I'll be ok.​

Oh no! RICE!

Rest: Keeping the injured area from any movement to prevent more blood flow

Ice: Applying cold therapy to decrease the inflammation and pain
(Sometimes in a pinch I just wrap a bag of frozen veggies with a towel.)

Compression: Applying an area of compression in order to decrease the hemorrhaging and reduce swelling

Elevation: Elevating the area of injury while lowering pressure in the blood vessels to minimize bleeding
If you can take it, ibuprofen can also help with the swelling. (Can you tell I’m accident prone?)

Take it easy and I hope you heal soon.

oh wowwwwwww! About ten years ago, I was walking my dog out in the snow and ice when she suddenly broke free from my grip. I ended up chasing her all the way to the next street over and halfway down that street. I was finally catching up to her when I slipped on somebody's driveway and hurt my back. It knocked the wind right out of me, and it took awhile for me to catch my breath. I didn't have my phone on me, so I had to walk all the way home with an injured back. It's a miracle my back didn't break, considering how hard the fall was, but it did hurt for the next week or so.

How's your knee now?

It hurts a lil occasionally. It's honestly weird because I thought for sure I messed up my knee. I guess my body absorbed and distributed the shock equally. My tail bone was also hurting. It kinda felt like tail bone pain when on a period (if anyone knows what I mean). I feel like I'm REALLY lucky because with my chronic pain and arthritis it should have been horrible. I will feel weird pains here and there on my leg, but it overall seems decent.
