knee pain recovery plan

Back in May I had the bad idea to play a volleyball game with my daughter's team (girls vs parents). The day after I woke up to extreme knee pain, both legs. Over the following month the pain reduced and eventually was completely gone on the left side. The right side was still giving me sharp pain any time I'd put weight on it in a bent position, for example, coming out of a lunge, stairs up, squatting. In general I'm in good shape, doing crossfit 4x week.

Since July I have been doing KOT zero (except the deep lunge part that is still painful) and dropped crossfit for mostly lifting weights at the local gym in ways avoiding any further stess on the knee. I can't really say I've seen improvements to date.

I ended up asking my chiro for help. We're now in week 4 of a KT Tape, plus foam-rolling, plus some 10 minutes rehab at the end of the appointment which is mostly focused on soft tissue massage around the knee. In the last week I feel things got even worse, with pain how shooting from the knee to the hip and the two being almost always correlated, and on top of that now pretty much all sort of movement which is not standing up straight or sitting causes some degree of pain.

Anyways, I need some advice on how to "get to the bottom of it", whether I just need to be patient, or accelerate things and maybe get to a sport specialist and get an MRI to rule out meniscus tear or something else. I have a relatively high pain tolerance so I can deal with the situation, but obviously I want to ensure I'm headed in the right direction. What would you recommend I do at this time?
