[|Human|] hi... I fell over a few weeks ago and twisted my ankle and grazed/cut my right knee. everything cleared up except my knee. some swelling on the inside of the leg just below the knee. there wasn t any sort of pain. them last sunday it started to swell more and pain was felt directly under the knee when i stood. with waking this pain was very brief... couple of steps. now it is larger the swelling and there is associated dull pain as well as the severe pain when I stand up. I started putting ice packs on it and strapped it last night. unfortunately i started looking online and found inflamed synovial fluid... then inflamed bursa-bursitis and now I am alarmed. I had an X-ray last week and the report is no broken or fractures however the report did say .... mild degenerative changes seen in knee joint with mild degenerative osteoarthritis lipping. It is sunday and i am probably being a panic merchant. Any advice or immediate home remedy would be very much appreciated Thankyou, Linda
[|AI|]  Hi there. It is possible you could have suffered from ligament injury or Bakers cyst. These won't show up on an X-ray but an MRI or Ultrasound may be needed. You can continue cold sponging the area. Avoid climbing stairs, cross leg sitting, kneeling or squatting I suggest you wear a knee cap and consult your Orthopaedician to get a full examination and proper management after relevant investigations.
