What Causes Swelling And Pain In The Right Knee?
I have pain and swelling on the inside of my right knee. Didn t fall or anything, just walking along and it gave out on me. Tore the ligamets in it when I was young a couple of times and have had surgery on it to clean up scar tissue about 5 years back. Don t know why it has acted up again.

Hi i did review your concern
It seems that you are having some meniscal or ligamentous injury in the knee again which can sometimes occur due to any innocuous event. a meniscal pathology is more likely since you do not have a fall or severe trauma
I would recommend you to get an MRI done of knee to see the internal structures in detail.
I hope this helps
Wish you a very healthy life ahead.
