Suggest Treatment For Persistent Pain In Knee
I hit the bone below my knee on a terracotta pot 3 weeks ago, yesterday I bent down and right when my knee touched the floor I had the worst pain where I hit the bone on the terracotta pot. my question is, should it still be hurting that bad after 3 weeks?

Hello
You need proper clinical evaluation and investigations.
X-ray of right knee(AP/Lateral)should be taken to exclude any bony fracture.
If there is no bony injury then you may need MRI of right knee.It is important to assess cruciate ligament,meniscus etc.
Treatment depend upon findings.
You should consult orthopedician for assessment.
Get well soon.
