For twisted knee which causing extreme pain you can take some antibiotic like ampoxin or droxyl after an expert opinion along with combiflam or ibugesic-plus for pain and swelling. Do hot water fomentation over knee to reduce the pain and inflammation. You can also apply crepe bandage over the same site.
