Morning #2, swelling has decreased significantly (I'd almost say back to normal size), and there still doesn't appear to be any bruising, just a constant achiness toward the knee and a high sensitivity to just about any kind of direct pressure (including sitting the wrong way). Will continue to alternate ice and compression as well as stretch and test ROM as far as pain will semi-comfortably allow. The two biggest ROM (and pain) issues right now are sitting/standing with a chair and making a full walking stride, though I'd say my stride has lengthened by an inch so far.
