Looks like you have injured your ACL and Lateral meniscus anterior horn. There is joint effusion too (haemarthrosis).
Next Steps
Confirmation is done along with clinical examination findings.
Health Tips
If you lead a sporty lifestyle, then I would suggest Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction and Meniscus surgery following a conservative trial of 4 weeks.
