Chronic Swelling in Knee ! Need Advice
Hi Doctor! I dislocated my kneecap 6 months before(It was my first time dislocating it) which was reduced and I was in cast for 1 month. Now my knee is completely fine and I am able to Walk and Run easily and it doesn't pain also. But the problem is the swelling on knee has not gone away even 1 percent in these months. Is it something serious or wil it go sway in some time ? It has been there for 6 months.
Thanks in advance!

Knew dislocates only when atleast 2 ligaments of the knees gets torn so for that you need to get mri of your knee as you are walking on injured knee ligaments which may be adding to your inflammation
Next Steps
