We need more information. What have you done to the knee? if it is just soft tissue damage then the appropriate stretching and strengthening should have you back to full function without any last effects. If there is something more serious going on then (as indicated by the 3 week history so far) do you know what it is? have you had any input?
To be fair most injuries to the knee with some exceptions are going to all comprise a very similar rehabilitation program of strengthening and stretching... So if you get the appropriate exercises you should mend well. Without knowing more about what is wrong I cannot comment further.
