Maybe this time you really went far enough to injure your meniscus real bad. Maybe that is torn now, complete or incomplete. You will need another clinical exam and an arthroscopic exam along with a follow up corrective surgery if required. Meanwhile use a crepe bandage to support your knee and take pain killers as and when required. Good luck.

Go see your Dr. for stress tests and he/she will probably order an MRI. Also note any swelling at the joint line, as well as point tenderness.
