If it feels like a sprain or strain use the RICE method. Rest, Ice, Compress, adn Elevate. Stay of the bad knee, Ice down, Wrap with an ACE bandage and elevate it above the level of your heart.

im glad you are going to the doctor because there is no way anyone can tell,be sure to stay off of it and if it is swelling put your foot up,if it goes to swelling and the pain persists have mom take you to the emergency and let them xray so you can be sure not to damage it further freak accidents happen and you dont always know what causes them.......good luck

I hope you feel better soon. I would think ICE before HOT.
