I jumped landed on my knee and it popped very loudly and i couldn t put any weight on it, it swelled up huge and i couldn t walk on it. Went to the doctor and he said it was probably just sprained but that was a while ago and it still hurts consistently

Hello,

I think you may need to use anti-inflammatory drugs such ibuprofen or naproxen for pain. You may also need to do physical therapy to help regain full function.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
