Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have severe knee pain. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like injury, bakers cyst, fracture, ligament or meniscus injury. I would suggest you to take proper rest, do not walk to move your knee much, apply cold compresses for 48 hours after injury and then apply warm compresses and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen for pain. Consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination. Doctor will order X-ray, or CT scan to confirm the diagnosis. Doctor may give plaster along with anti-inflammatory and muscle relaxant. Doctor may recommend surgery in severe injury. Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
