Answers:
sounds like you may have a torn ligament ( not sure i spelled that right) Use Ice for approx 20 minutes at a time hold an ice pack on it and then remove it!. use Naproxen for mild pain relief and to help take some sweeling out!. also when My knee has it's bad days i have found that sometimes soaking in a bath tub of hot water will ease the pain!.!.!. I wish you the best of luck
