Question 1

i have got a sore knee, sore to touch and swollen?

Injury/infection: If the knee is red, warm, and tender to the touch, an infection is high on the list of potential causes. Therefore, you should seek an orthopedic surgeon's evaluation. If you injured your knee, by twisting, hitting, or some other method, then it may not be as critical to see a physician. Ice, wrap, and anti-inflammatory agents may work. Probably best to break down and see a physician.

Accepted Answer

Please : Please see an orthopedic specialist for a complete evaluation of your knees if you haven't done so.  If your x-rays show "bone on bone" arthritis, where your joint space is completely obliterated, and you have failed bracing and nsaids such as advil, (ibuprofen) then you may need a knee replacement.  Possibly though you have another diagnosis such as neuropathy, which is a nerve condition of your legs, or even vascular disease such as claudication.  You need a complete workup to find out for sure.
