Suggest Treatment For Pain And Swelling In Knee
I was bending my knee to kneel down and heard/felt a pop in my left knee, sort of like cracking knuckles. No pain for about 10 minutes but then swelling started. Now it hurts to bend or straighten the knee. Once bent or straight there is no pain, and it does not hurt when bearing weight. Pain seems to be just to the outside of the kneecap in a very small area.

Hi,
As of now you can use analgesics/anti inflammatory combination like Aceclofenac/Seratiopeptdase for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persists you can consult an orthopedics and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
