See your Doctor: You might have an torn meniscus that is catching. This could make things worse if you wait too long. Go see your doctor.

Need evaluation: Swelling in the knee is a marker for something inside being torn and the slipping and pain are indications that you should have this evaluated by and orthopedist.
