Only thing i can tell you is i doubt its infection or it would of spread.
Could be Damp heat or just damp invasion in the body. But from a Chinese Medicine point of view it would indicate the possiblity of a Kidney Yang disharmony. Seeking out some Acupuncture could be very beneficial.
get a second opinion.
peace
I'd go to a different doctor. A swollen knee could be a symptom of an STD. The doctor may discover that your knee is filled with fluid, in which case he'd take a syringe and drain the fluid out. Then culture the fluid for any micro organisms. Then he'd be able to tell you what's causing the infection. Just a suggestion.
Also, did you have any knee surgery before this happend?
GET A SECOND OPINION.
And I'd see an acupuncturist while you're at it...can't hurt.:)
