What Causes Swelling And Heaviness In Knee/ankle?
Hello, It could be arthritis or joint effusion. As of now, you can use analgesics/anti-inflammatory combination like aceclofenac/serratiopeptidase for symptomatic relief. If symptoms persist better to consult an orthopedic and plan for an MRI scan. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
