Brief Answer:
Ligament injury

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

The pain you have could be due to ligament sprain in the joint especially the anterior crutiate ligament.

Do consult a Orthopedician who can confirm the same after doing a set of specific tests.

Meanwhile do take Tab Motrin 400mg twice a day after food for three days.

Hope, I answered your query.

Please do ask if there any doubts.
