A member asked:
I fell 5 days ago on a tile floor, bruised both knees. now my right knee is swollen with burning pain from knee to ankle ?

Swollen knee: Swelling of the knee after a fall can be superficial or internal damage, an examination in person can help determine the difference. The burning to the ankle seems like you bruised the common peroneal nerve on the side of the knee. See a doctor in person
