Knee swelling with numbness
I have been experiencing swelling on my left knee for about 3 months now. In the beginning the swelling would come and go. it has been constant for about 3 weeks. Now I'm starting to feel slight numbness from my knee to my toes. It is affecting my sleep as well. Should I handle this as an emergency?

Dear Respected
I have gone through your problems.
For more clear advice I need to examine you in details along with some investigation like x ray and blood test.
Revert back with all these.
