Knee Injury?

yesterday I was playing volleyball in a sand pit and landed funny. when i came home, my knee started to become swollen and stiff. I could not really bend it without using the aid of my hands. i wnet to the emergency room and they said i didn't break any bones through looking at xrays. i have a knee brace right now and stiffness. knee is still swollen. wanted to know if i tore a muscle or something serious like that or is this just a sprain? how long will it take to heal? surgery needed?

1. Arnica 30 three doses will normally clear up many of the knee injuries. If ligaments or tendons are affected use of Ledum Pal 30 would be necessary upto three doses. Any nerves are involved Hypericum 30 should be used. Normally all knee injuries are cleared within one or two days by these medicines. If it still persists a combination of Bryonia 30 and pulsatilla 30 upto three doses each will surely cure.

Above is information. Use medicines under supervision of doctor.
