What Causes Knee Clicking With Persistent Pain And Swelling?

I turned the other night and whenever i did my right knee made a very loud snapping sound and there was instant pain and the pain still hasnt stopped. It continues to swell and it is very painful to walk on and cant hardly stand to put any weight on it. What happened to it? Did i tear something?

Hi,

Knee clicking with persistent pain and swelling, difficulty in walking, wouldn't be able to stand, couldn't bear weight could most likely be a meniscal tear.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
