HI.
The more important is the pain in the knee , which is radiating. This is suggestive of an active inflammatory process going on in the Knee and should be physically checked by an Orthopedic Surgeon and confirmed by an MRI of the knee joint.
The other swelling can be due to a muscle herniation as it is seen only on a typical position. This too will be confirmed by your Ortho Surgeon and may need a few stitches to close the defect.
