Suggest Treatment For Pain In Knees And Calf

I was walking about a week ago and my knee popped and started swelling. The swelling still hasn t gone down and I m in a lot of pain. I cannot straighten it completely out nor can I bend it completely. Also my calf muscle is very sore. What is wrong with my knee? I have worn a brace on it for the past week hoping that would help. Please help
