What Is The Suggested Remedy For Ligament Pain In Knee?
Hi My name is Jon and I have strained some ligament in my knee six weeks ago and I am still getting pain in it. I think I ve done the Interior Ligament and now I am getting some pain across the front of my knee. Are there any exercises I can do to help the heeling process? Thanks

Hello,
You must get an MRI scan of your knee to know actually which ligament has an issue and up to what extent.
As few ligaments, the injury is healed by giving rest to the part and physiotherapy later on but some require surgical correction.
As already 6 weeks are passed its quite possible that you have some major ligament issue, so get an MRI scan first to plan the further management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
