I Tore My ACL 15 Days Ago While Skiing. I

I tore my ACL 15 days ago while skiing. I am now going to PT. My knee is very swollen. My question is: What medication can reduce the swelling? I have a prescription for Meloxicam that I use on occasion for knee arthritis. Would I be able to take this for the knee swelling? I am a 70 year old very active female who loves to play golf, ski, and ride my bike.
