I'm having a lot of pain and swelling in my left knee. I'm a female firefigher and the whole knee is swollen. Pain is mainly on the left side of the knee. It feels like a bruise on top of the kneecap and when I bend my leg and lift, the upper left section leading into my quad is very sore. Pushing on the bottom left of the kneecap is very painful.

Medical questions are off topic. There are many different structures in the knee that could cause this, your best option is to see a medical professional. – JohnP Feb 11 at 16:43
