Suggest Treatment For Swollen Knee And Joints
For the last three weeks, my knee has been swollen and painful. The swelling is minor and the pain feels like bruising in the joint. The pain is located in my left knee, front right side of my knee. Normal walking is no problem, however if I walk fast, uphill, run, lift, or climb stairs, the pain increases significantly.

Hello,
Swelling and pain in knee is suggestive of infection or inflammation in knee joint. I suggest you to consult an orthopedist for clinical assessment, relevant investigations like X-ray of knee joint and thus management.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
