What Causes Swelling And Pain In Right Knee Without Any Injury?
My right knee swelled up without injury. I had surgery on it 3 years ago from torn meniscus,But it swelled up slowly over the past 2 days. It hurts on the inside and swollen behind the knee. I have Hep C from transfusion 33 years ago. I m concerned that the swelling may be related to Hep C.I went swming today but I think it s worse so I now have it elevated with ice. I m waiting to see if I can get Harvoni but now worried about my knee
