Suggest Treatment For Knee Pain After Injury

I hit my knee on a metal hinge getting into a 4wheeler. It hurts to the touch and walking. Sitting down low like on a toilet is excruciating. However I can straighten it and can walk. I vied it for thirty minutes and now it hurts worse. That was iced it.
