How Long Does Knee Pain Persist After An Arthroscopy?

I had orthoscopic surgery on my knee last week, how long before I can expect to be pain free? Dr. left no post op instructions except WBAT and RLE...no ice as necessary. or ice 15 min at a time, or 3 times a day, or walk 15 min....nothing. Still unable to sleep in bed, too much pain, not sciatic is inflamed also..
