Orthopaedic Surgeon, Joint Replacement,  's  Response
I would suggest you to get MRI of knee to know what really happening with knee. It can be ligament injury, meniscus injury or cartilage damage. According to that treatment can be started. Till that time you avoid squatting, sitting cross leg. Start calcium and vitamin d for making bone stronger.
