See details: The possibilities are almost endless. This is an inflammatory arthritis and I would urge the knee be evaluated as soon as possible.

See Ortho if Needed: Usually most pain resolves on its own, however if it persists or you have swelling noted you may want to see an orthopedic doctor to evaluate it further. Use Ibuprofen or aleve (naproxen) around the clock for the next several days to help as well.
