Hello,
Please undergo x-ray knee ap and lateral view to diagnose any fluid and fracture. If all okay, then take any antiinflammatory drug as tablet aceclofenac two times for five days. You may apply a heating pad at knee or crepe bandage. Give rest to the knee for three or four days. If the problem does not resolve in one week, then go for MRI knee joint.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Varinder Joshi
