Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist 's  Response
Best things are to prevent excessive load on knee joint. As it is maximum weight bearing joint so the chances of wears and tears will be there if you don't strengthen muscles surrounding knee joint. First for 15 days pain relief should be promoted by taking physiotherapy treatment . With ultrasonic and ice immediately pain relief will be there. But then permenent solution is by strengthening muscles surrounding knee joint under supervision of skilled physiotherapist.
