Can : Can you afford to be crippled? You should be doing a lot better by now. This degree of pain is not normal. You need to be examined by an orthopedist and have additional treatment.There is a very strong possibility that you will require a knee arthroscopy.

Ligaments : Ligaments can take 6-8 weeks to heal but a completely torn ligament may not heal or heal in poor position. You need to see someone who understands these injuries at a level higher than an er md who may be fully correct in the diagnosis but can't offer u treatment.

Find : Find an orthopedic surgeon and get seen asap. Whatever it costs you now is trivial compared to having a stiff, painful knee that might not get better. At a minimum, get rid of the immobilizer and start bending your knee.
