How Can Swelling On The Knees Be Treated?

I was injured in a soccer game in July, knee swelled up, could walk on it with a little limb, now i can run, jump, squat, everything however I’ve played a game and my knee seems to give out at times and just not feel too secure. Any recommendations on what it might be ?
