Hi ! Good evening. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. If I were your doctor, with your history of trauma and no bony injury in the x-rays, I would advise you for an orthopedic opinion who might suggest you for an MRI of the affected knee to rule out any ligament or cartilage injury. Rest of the management would depend on the physical findings, and reports of the related investigations. Till then, you could go for an anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.
