Brief Answer:
It can be diagnosed on the basis of MRI

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. Extent of injury can only be classified on the basis of MRI. It is not possible to suggest grading just on the basis of symptoms. So I have following suggestions for you.
1.Rest and hot water fomentation.
2.Tablet Etoricoxib 90 mg one daily.
3.Tablet Tendocare one daily for three months.
4.Avoid any sporting activity or fast running.
I hope these steps will be helpful for you.Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
