Without an exam and appropriate history a guess is at best. Joint swelling tells you there is damage to the joint. This could entail multiple possibilities. Without an appropriate diagnosis you could be doing more harm by ambulating. You are young and need proper healing to be active in future. See an orthopedic surgeon as soon as possible.
