Pain the the outer knee

2017-06-08 02:32:04
I had an injury while playing football last Friday. I have taken an xray since and there is no fracture. There is no swelling and stiffness has reduced. I've been applying crepe bandage during the day to limit the movement. There is however discomfort and sharp shooting pain at angles which indicate it could be a lateral knee ligament stretch/damag
