Brief Answer:
Get yourself clinically examined and investigated.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, it seems that you might be having muscle injury.
I would suggest that you should get yourself clinically examined and investigated by an Orthopedic surgeon.
You can take painkiller like Ibuprofen twice daily after meals along with serratipeptidase and a muscle relaxant like Chloroxazone.
An antacid like Omeprazole 40mg once a day before meals will help in preventing gastritis associated with painkiller intake.
Give rest to your leg. Hot fomentation and application of pain relieving gel locally will help. You can use a knee support or elastic crepe bandage for support.
A clinical examination will help in planning further medical management.
I hope this is helpful to you.
If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
