Ask for a ultra sound which will show the inflammation on your knee, it might help diagnose any problems you have. Hugs from me. xxxx

Good advice from sylvi, an ultra sound or scan will show any inflammation or anything concerning potential tissue problems. Hope you get to the source of what is affecting your knee. Take care xx
