I hurt my knee today in softball. I slid from third to home. There wasn't much dirt there so when I slid my pad came down. I also slid a little late. When I got back to the dugout after being called safe I pulled down my pad because my knee really hurt. I was shocked to see my whole knee bleeding. I got napkins and water and whipped it off. My coach also gave me a bandage. They didn't have anything else. Now it looks like my knee got split in the middle. The cut isn't that deep but it is extreamly painful and stings. What can I do?
I put disinfection on it already and a bandage, but it stings.. HELP!!!

This needs to be seen by a dr to be on the safe side. You can try a walk-in clinic to see if they can help you get this cleaned up.
In the mean time if the knee is swollen you can try and put an ice pack to the area to see if that helps some.
