Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Hi, If I were your treating Doctor for this case , I will advise you to do X-ray to asses any bony fracture. MRI may be helpful to assess ligament and menisci.
for your knee condition, certain instructions should be followed,
-limb elevation.
-cold fomentation.
-chondroprotective and strong analgesic.
