Have it evaluated.: Knee swelling can be due to many things such as gout, infection, or due to tendon, cartilage, or bone abnormalities. Have it evaluated by a professional and get the appropriate treatment.

Then get it examined: There are numerous causes of knee inflammation. See a rheumatologist. X rays and examination of the joint fluid should give you the cause.
