Hi,
You must have regular follow up with your doctor.
Now you can take aceclofenac + serratiopeptidase combination three times a day by prescription of your family doctor.
Apply hot packs for 30 mins in morning and evening.
Avoid upstairs as much as you can.
If pain still persist for 7 days then get xray of both knees standing in AP view and send me the report.
I hope it helps.
Thanks.
Dr.Singh.
