What Causes Pain And Swelling Below The Knee Cap?

I would like to know if you can tell me what my daughter has. She had volleyball practice today and after practice she said her knee hurt. I took a look at it and on the lower part of the knee cap I noticed it s a little more swollen than the other knee. It s a bigger lump than the other side. Can you help me? Rose

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, knee joint is highly vulnerable to injury even wrong angle during sport could cause the sport injury it is better to get done the x-ray or MRI of knee joint till then better not to play but rest is important, treatment is depends upon the injury (Meniscus ) for the pain Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day can be tried hope this information helps.
