3 months!? Sounds like a meniscus injury !. I had the same injury!. Go to an othopetic doctor!. You will most likely need an MRI!. As for now take 600mg motrin for the swelling and pain!. and just keep doing what your doing!. If it gets worse go to the ER!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
First if it is bothering you that bad go see the doctor and have him take an x ray!. When walking either use an ace bandage or what people use in sports knee guards!. If able use crutches just to stay off leg!. If very pain comes just get down and stay still so you wont get hurt anymore!. Also what you should do is put heat on it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
