Internal derangement: something in the knee is wrong, resulting in the pain and the fluid. It doesn't always happen after a recognized trauma. Since the meniscus pads and the cartilage have no nerves, sometimes people don't feel it when they tear something. You should see an orthopedic specialist to get it checked out.
