Hello,

I have studied your case history.
If there is fracture in your leg bone then it is difficult to walk on it

Clinical examination is important to rule out knee ligament injury

For these symptoms analgesic like ibuprofen and chymotrypsin medication can be started.

Apply crepe bandage over knee or use supportive splint. Do ice fomentation and rest to leg.

If you can send your x ray I can comment regarding need of surgery or plaster.
