Hello doctor, I have had minor swelling in my right knee for past 1 year. off late, it has become difficult to walk and stand without feeling quite some pain and strain. The MRI performed 6 months back also stated minor joint effusion. There were no observations in the X-ray either. Also, I had sprained my right ankle 9 Years back which did not heal completely. What could be the reason for my knee swelling. I haven?t gotten any proper diagnosis yet.
