If the knee was swollen after the event but it has recovered with less pain, you probably had a bad knee contusion and it takes time for the pain completely resolves. You only need to be evaluated by an orthopedist after 6-8 weeks if knee's range of motion is still limited by then. Wearing a knee brace may be helpful in the mean time. Good luck.
