Conservative therapy is usually all that is needed.

Avoid physical activities that require frequent deep knee bending for 2-4 months.

Therapeutic exercises to strengthen the quadriceps and the hamstrings are prescribed.

Orthopedic devices

Infrapatellar strap

Knee brace

Walking cylinder cast (full extension for 3-6 wk)

Analgesics

Control pain and inflammation

Corticosteroid injections should be avoided because of the risk of degenerative changes and subcutaneous atrophy.

Prevention

Patients should avoid sports that involve heavy quadriceps loading.

Patients should increase hamstring and quadriceps flexibility.

swimming is the best exercise as it does not place any stress on the joints. I think you could do this without causing further pain.

I don' think that there are doctors here. You do not know if a person claims that he is a doctor if he is telling the truth.

See another doctor on your own. Ask your doctor for a referral. Perhaps you should go to an orthopedist or another type of specialist.
