Brief Answer:
Can be mild soft tissue inflammation.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have sen the attached image. The pain on the medial side of the knee without any redness or swelling is likely to be due to a mild soft tissue inflammation. Sudden stretching or unstable movement of the knee can cause such a mild soft tissue injury. Rest, avoiding any painful movements and mild pain killers can help her. Massaging will not help much. She can use an elastic brace or knee supports for an extra support to the area.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
