What Causes Swollen Knees With Walking Difficulty?
Hello, I noticed that I have a not significant but noticeable swelling a little on the left side on the lower portion of my left knee. It does not hurt, although thinking back I have noticed difficulty walking up or getting up the stairs for a little while. But at rest or usual pace walking I don t feel any pain. How serious it might be?

U don't need to worry much if the pain is not that significant as it could be because of any trauma to your knee if any...you should take any painreleifer such as any combination of acelofinac paracetamol for 3 days and try to make movement of your knee and foment it with leukworm water and if the problem still persist the u can have a xray of your knee...
