Hi, Thank you for providing the brief history of you. Need of a musculoskeletal assessment with special tests for the knee is recommended. Also, as mentioned by you, the pain region, it appears you may have sprained the ligament in the knee joint, mostly there are few to get sprain are the Anterior cruciate ligament, meniscus and medical collateral ligament. To find out which ligament has got sprain an orthopedic special test can be performed and checked out. Also, an MRI will help understand the extent of ligament injury, as in MRI the ligament are visualized. Also, treatment will be planned accordingly. The treatment includes - rest, medication for pain and physical therapy for pain, strength and mobility. Based on my personal experience if the Spain the recovery is 99%. RegardsJay In Chat Doctor.
