Hi,
Thanks for query,
You might have some injury to the joint and some damage to ligament of the joint causing swelling on the part giving two separate parts feeling.
Give rest to the part,hot fomentation,
Do not bend the joint,
Do patellar exercise.
If there is no improvement then consult ortho.
ok and bye.
