Knee pain and swelling

Question

Asked for Male, 21 Years

My left knee used to make a little cracking sound for a while now after landing on it in improperly.(8 months ago) 2 days ago I've done 15 minutes leg exercise and it hurt, felt numb and swelled the next day. I've applied HemoClar cream and Volini spray it's slightly better and less swelling. I've seen a doctor after landing on it improperly and he said it's only roughness but it's not. I'm worried and would like to know whats wrong with it please help.

There has to be some soft tissue injury in your knee which is left untreated for long. Please consult orthopaedic surgeon and get an MRI done for proper diagnosis. Do not do any exercises without the knowledge of qualified person. You might be hurting your knee even more in the process.
