What did you do today?

Hello All
I had a accident today.
Ended up with a badly swollen left knee.
Cause: Trying to catch a big turtle crossing the road, Tripped and fell hard on gravel Left Knee hit first.
Have other abrasions but the knee is the worst, using lots of horse liniment.
Same Leg that took major damage from a land mine a few years ago.
Here is a trick I use on horses and now myself would work on goats too with leg swellings.
In my case my jeans are tight over the knee because of swelling.
I just keep the area wet with Absorbine Horse Liniment
You could use a old sock
(Clean) with the toe cut out to do the same thing if you wear shorts or for a sprained ankle etc.
A old small sock with the toe cut out I think would work on a goat too.
Soak the area good with Liniment, have used the sock method on horses for poltices of different kinds as well as protection for bandaging wound dressings.
Goats were not  responsible for my injury.
Happy Trails
Just call me Hop Along hihobaron
