I had ijured my knee 2 weeks ago. Initially it got swollen and i was unable to walk. X-ray report shown no fracture. Now i can stand and walk also(not freely though) but it hurts while walking up/down on the stairs. Also i am unable to straighten my knee fully (90% i can do). Is it sign of ligament injury?
