Question : I think I twisted my knee. Pain on outside of right knee and hurts to bend leg. This happened when I stepped off a commuter train. The step was big and I mis judged it.

Brief Answer:
Get your knee evaluated

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

You seem to have sprained your knee and that could have caused damage to the ligaments of the knee. Hot compress may help but you should visit an orthopaedic surgeon and get yourself evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query.
