Question: Could this be arthritis? PLEASE HELP!!!!?
my knee hurts, its a tiny bit swollen, its been hurting all day when i put pressure on it and bended my knee, and putting my fingers on the swollen part feels like my skin is burning. what could this be?
Answers:
Usually arthritis pain is felt in more than one joint, but it is possible that it could be arthritis. But it could be something else. People who have a swollen knee can either have fluid within the knee joint itself, or in the surrounding soft tissue. The first step in determining the cause of the fluid accumulation is to determine where the fluid is located. It can be inside the joint or outside the joint. Read more about knee swelling here.
