Hello,
Consult an orthopedician and plan for an MRI scan.
As the conservative management (RICE) has failed.
We have to rule out can go for braces for a couple of weeks. As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like Aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
