Knee pain with swelling in the feet at your age could be due to osteoarthritis, ligament issues, or joint inflammation, especially if it worsens with movement. Avoid sitting for too long, do gentle leg exercises, and apply warm compresses to relieve stiffness. Please consult an Orthopedic Specialist for an X-ray and proper treatment, as medicines or physiotherapy may be needed for lasting relief.

First, we need to consider what might be causing the knee pain. It could be due to a variety of reasons such as a ligament strain, osteoarthritis, bursitis, or even a minor injury that has been exacerbated due to overuse. Since only a part of your knee is affecting, it could suggest localized inflammation or trauma. Assess whether you had any recent injury or excessive physical activity which might be contributing. A first step at home is to minimize stress on the knee. Use the RICE method: Rest the affected knee (avoid activities that might increase the pain), apply Ice packs wrapped in a cloth for about 15-20 minutes every few hours to reduce swelling. Compression with a snugly fitted bandage might help in managing swelling too, but ensure it’s not too tight to cause further discomfort. Elevation can also assist in reducing swelling, especially while resting, by propping your leg up on a pillow. For reducing knee pain and addressing swelling in the foot, over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications like ibuprofen could be beneficial, but make sure there’s no contraindication like a pre-existing condition or medication interaction. However, these only provide temporary relief. Given the swelling in the foot from prolonged sitting, ensure you take breaks to move gently to aid circulation, but do this mindfully to avoid aggravating the pain. Consider swapping sedentary sitting with some light leg movement or stretching if discomfort allows. If the pain or swelling persists, does not improve, or worsens over the next few days, it would be advisable to seek medical evaluation. This might involve a physical examination or imaging like an X-ray or MRI to determine the underlying cause and get appropriate treatment. Don’t delay in contacting a healthcare professional if you notice redness, warmth, pain increasing, or if you develop systemic symptoms like fever—these could point to more serious conditions like an infection that would require urgent attention.
