Hello,
For all these problems u should visit to the Physiotherapist. First start with ice twice a day for 3 days.
Also start exercises like knee press and ankle toe movement but better u do all in guidance of Physiotherapist

Your pathology seems to be infective..as your CRP is 24. Not sure if this is RA as blood tests are normal.
This can be a seronegative arthritis. In this condition blood parameters are normal for RA.
Next Steps
Treat this as any other infective condition.i.e
1. Rest to affected limb.
2. Ice pack application locally.
3. Medications like Ceftum, Lizolid, Enzomac and Identical K2 will help.
4. Keep affected limb elevated.
