I have a bruise on the back of my knee. It is painful in any sideways movement. I can walk with little of=r no pain but when I lay down and tur over I get a shooting pain in that area. I do have varicose veins but they have never bothered me much if at all. I am also wondering if a blood vessel could have ruptured. What do you suggest. I am planning on contacting the VA where I receive my healthcare. I am ^5 years old. Wayne
