Brief Answer:
As explained below.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Swelling without pain is not so common. It can be a knee effusion that is a collection of fluid in the knee or a lipoma which is a fat collection. To rule out other cause a physical examination and XRay is a must. I suggest you visit a nearby orthopedist and get a detailed examination and treatment.
I hope this answered your query.
