Brief Answer:
Can you bear weight on it? Are you able to walk?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this knee injury you suffered today. I have reviewed your information fully. If you can bear weight and maintain stability on this leg, then managing the pain is all we need to do at this time. I will recommend that you take Ibuprofen and Tylenol for more pain control.

If the pain persist or gets worse, then I will suggest that seek to get an MRI of the knee to make sure all the structures are in tact and there is nothing to worry about.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
