Answer 1

It could just be a kink in it and it may just need rest. Just take a weekend off, and stay off of it.

Answer 2

if it has been 4 weeks you should definately see a doctor ASAP.

Quit playing sports or you will make it worse.  

Take Tylenol for the pain.  

Answer 3

depends where it was hit, i doubt it is a ligament rupture because you wouldnt be able to walk, unless the mcl or lcl was torn, which is possible, not an acl tear.  my guess is that it is partially torn or just sprained.  go to the doctor and have them look at it and maybe get an mri, i think it will be ok, but get it look by a professional, A GOOD PROFESSIONAL

Answer 4

Sounds like a torn ligament. See a doctor or it will get worse.
