Suggest Treatment For Pain And Swelling In The Inner Knee

I have had pain behind my knee and in my calf for several weeks. I did have some pooling of blood in one area of the inner side of my calf a couple of weeks ago, and also swelling in my ankle. I am feeling confused because I have had pain in the knee area since I broke my kneecap 9/15. Any ideas of the possible cause?

Hello,

Consult an orthopedician and get evaluated. An MRI scan will be helpful to look for possible causes like effusion.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
