Suggest Treatment For Swollen And Painful Knee

I am going on 7 months post all surgery and I was playing basketball and my knee started hurting so I quit and the next day I woke up and my knee started hurting and it was swollen and I put ice on it and the swelling went down but I can t run still but I can straiten it and bend it and it hurts on the inside of my knee closer to the other one and I fell like my knee catches when I extend it and I didn t hear a pop when it happened and I walked off the court just fine. Can you tell me anything about it

Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Typical of medial meniscal injury. Use knee brace and take rest for 2 weeks . Take MRI to confirm the diagnosis. Clinical condition and history favours meniscal injury
