What Could Cause Pain And Popping In Knees With Swelling?
yes about 6 weeks ago my knee starting hurting then went away and about 2 weeks ago a large popping sound and now is very stiff and when i walk has a tendency to give out lower corner of knee cap is swollen and is so tight its very hard to bend actually painful
There could be torn meniscus acting like a loose body. Get MRI of the knee and consult orthopaedic surgeon with the report, since treatment may require surgery.
