I landed on my knee when I fell, now very swollen. Nothing broken, I'm sure. Just not sure how often and for how long to apply ice

Now. 20 minutes, 20 minutes off. Be sure your skin and the ice do not touch. Put the ice in a plastic or cloth bag and have a folded washcloth or towel between your knee and the ice bag.
