Treated or cured.: The first step is determining the nature and cause of the swelling. A history and evaluation is the starting point. Seek the consultation from an orthopedic surgeon and you are on your way for resolution.

Diagnosis: It would have to originate primarily from the correct diagnosis as to the cause of your swelling. There are inflammatory causes, traumatic causes, degenerative causes among others; all of which are treated differently. Don't hesitate to be seen for an accurate diagnosis. From that point appropriate treatment can be discussed.
