Pain and swelling may be minimized by ice, rest, and elevation. Compression may help as tolerated (ace wrap or knee sleeve. Call to see if your MRI can be moved up and orthopedic surgeon may want to re examine you

You could have extended the tear of the meniscus resulting in increased pain and possible impingement. See Orthopedist as soon as possible
