Hi, Gm, Take rest on already sprained ligament. Walking can damage it further. See some good orthopedist especially sports injury doctor. He may do certain clinical tests to assess which ligament has been sprained. You may need an MRI mostly after swelling is down in knee if there is any. He may give you a long knee brace to stop movements at knee. After correct diagnosis he can treat you accordingly.
Thanks
