Water on the knee?

Yeah yesterday i was skiing and second run through the park i smashed by knee on a rail. Now i have what my dad likes to call "water on the knee," pretty much my knee is about the size of a baseball. it does not hurt much, unless you poke it, but it does limit my range of motion alot. for anyone who has done this how long did you give it to let the swelling subside, if it did not subside quickly did you go to the doctor to get it drained?

yeah i took it to the doctor cos it was really painfull, they didnt drain it he jus made me stop skiing for 3 weeks to let it subside, but it was fine after about 1-2 weeks anyway.

dude, you must be a giant newb, cant fucking hit a rail without getting hurt, damn i know five year olds that could poop all over your bad skiing abilities. Plus skiing sucks, you can go so much more back door richtor with a snowboard under your feet
