Get you knee evaluated clinically and with MRI.
Recurrent swelling (heamarthrosis or hematoma ) is suggestive of intrarticular substance tear (menisci, ACL or PCL).
Wear compressive crepe bandage. Apply ice packs locally .
Medications like Enzomac and Tendocare will help.
Keep affected limb elevated.
