Brief Answer:
Get xray done.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your query.

Instead of having ice and painkillers straightly, you should get xray of involved knee in AP and Lateral and send me the report.

There may be a hairline crack on the bone.

Till then have tab. aceclofenac100mg+ serratiopeptidase15mg thrice a day.

Apply hot packs.

Avoid exercise, squatting etc.

I hope everything thing will be ok.

Thanks,

Thanks.

Thanks, my friend.

The medication I advised you is mainly to decrease puffiness, it only in addition decreases pain, since you don't have pain,even then this medication will prove gold standard for you.

If you have any query, you can directly ask me any question.
