Suggest Treatment For Painful And Swollen Legs

Thank you. My left knee is swollen and I am unable to put much pressure on it and unable to straighten my leg. I was just standing still and all of a sudden my knee felt like bent the wrong way and buckled. It is very painful. I have been icing it and that helps but it s difficult to walk. Any suggestions?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, what the pain you have of knee joint could be due to arthritis condition, it can be tried with Tab Diclofenac 50 mg once in day, steroid can be tried but you need to be qualified for that, it is better to discus this with doctor, try not to bend the knee joint hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
