Answers:
ur first year in med school!?!?!?!?!? can!.t you ask one of your professors!?!?!?!? edema is usually along a foot, leg (extending up), arm (extending down)!.!.!.!.!.!.gravity helps the fluid go to these areas easier!.!.!.and the swelling you are experience is limited to your knee, so i don!.t know that it is actually edema!.!.!.!.so its probably residual swelling of the underlying tissue from the trauma of being run overWww@Answer-Health@Com
