I twisted my knee a few weeks ago and it still hurts to jog or even climb stairs on. any idea why its taking so long to heal and how i can heal it?

Have internal injury: You may have internal knee joint injury. You will need an evaluation to clarify why you have a persistent problem. This can be a ligament, cartilage or bone injury. Knee quadriceps exercises will help but you need a definite diagnosis.
