Hi. Swelling in the knee suggests there is internal derangement in the knee which means there might be a Ligament strain or meniscus injury or both which is not seen on xray which requires mri.
Next Steps
Do ice fomentation. Leg elevation and immobilisation of knee.
Health Tips
Consider going to a sports medicine surgeon and get mri to rule out any injury

• Short Arcs: Lie flat on your back or sit upright with your leg placed horizontally on a flat surface like a chair or bed. Place a rolled up towel under the knee. Pull your toes towards you and clench you thigh muscles. Slowly lift your foot up off the bed until your knee is straight (keep your knee resting on the towel). Hold for 3 secs and slowly lower them on the chair. Repeat 10 times twice a day. • Straight Leg Raise: Lie flat on your back. One leg and knee will be straight and other leg should be bent. Pull your toes towards you and tighten/clench the muscle on the front of the thigh, locking your knee straight. Lift your foot up in the air, about 6 inches off the bed. Hold for 3 secs and slowly lower the leg. The knee must remain straight the whole time you are doing this exercise.
