Is it normal if my knee sprain hurts for more than 3 months if nothing was torn, ligaments were only overstretched? it doesn't hurt when i'm walking but it is painful if i try to bend my knee or squat down?

Q: is it normal if my knee sprain hurts for more than 3 months if nothing was torn, ligaments were only overstretched? it doesn't hurt when i'm walking but it is painful if i try to bend my knee or squat down?

: Persistent pain is not normal. If the pain is getting less, you may give it time to heal on its own. If it is not getting better, it would be prudent to see a doctor. Wish you good health!
