Home Remedies for swollen stuff


Recommended Posts

So today me and a few of my friends were messing around on my buddy's stair case...and he has this shelf that you can hang on if u jump off the top story, so i try it and i slip off the top story of his house and fall to the first :angry: i fell straight down onto the tile floor and hit my knee first...to make a long story short, my left knee is about 3 times the size of my right knee, and its so swollen that i can't even move it. Does anybody know anything i can do besides keeping it elevated and icing it?

Treating Swollen Knees

The best way to treat a swollen knee due to injuries or overuse is to follow the RICE System:

Rest your swollen knee.

Ice your swollen knee.

Compress your swollen knee.

Elevate your swollen knee.

If you?re looking for leg elevators or leg cushions to more easily get your swollen knees and legs elevated, click here.

if you got a 24 hour Sav-On/rite aid open, go and buy a knee sleeve (about $15) and slip it on.. it'll help w/ the compression and keep your knee cap in place.

naproxen will help take the swelling down. for pain i suggest some pain killers

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
