Hi,

Post surgery, knee is swollen and pain related to inflammation of knee. To relieve the pain you have to consult your treating doctor, because already some pain killer may be prescribed after surgery. For inflammation you can take hot water soaking around knee.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
