Hi, thanks for writing to HCM.
All your symptoms (constant pain, difficulty in walking, swelling, restricted range of motion) are highly suggestive of Infection in the knee joint, unless proved otherwise.
I suggest you to consult an experienced arthroscopic surgeon for a detailed evaluation and further management.
Hope this information is helpful. Good day
