My right knee hurts and swells if i walk a lot what could be the cause?

Probably arthritis: Other causes might include bursitis or a blood clot, but pain and swelling are signs of arthritis, and that is the most likely diagnosis. Your doctor can help you make a more precise diagnosis and determine the best treatment.
