Really warm knees but not sore?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
They could be swollen: Swelling in the knees needs to be evaluated. This might not be anything serious, and the warmth may be just part of your total body warmth.

Many possibilities: An increase in the temperature of the knee can be due to many things such as gout, infection, inflammation of the bursa, or due to tendon, cartilage, or bone abnormalities. Have it evaluated by a professional and get the appropriate treatment.
