Hi, thanks for using HCM.
With history of injury to knee joint, C-ray can rule out only bony injury not soft tissue injury.
Since pain is still persisting need to get examined to rule out ligament injury or injury to cartilage in knee joint. Examination by qualified doctor helps to diagnose condition and appropriate correction necessasary.
