Usually sorts itself out after a few days. Good thing I have an adequate supply of pain killers and Ibuprofen gel.

Similar . . nasty knee injury from a football incident in my late teens. Plagued me on & off since then but usually cleared up after a week.
Now I'm much older, arthritis has been added to the 'wear & tear' and pain/swelling is becoming something to live with. Trying to lose weight by eating 'better & less', but daily exercise is limited due to the knee issue itself and arthritis in the lower back.
Hoping that swimming may help if/when that becomes a reality.
