    Knee effusion can cause many symptoms, such as joint swelling, joint pain, and limited mobility.

    1.Joint swelling: Aseptic inflammation occurs within the knee joint, resulting in a large amount of synovial fluid secretion to form an effusion. If there is too much effusion, it will enter the surrounding soft tissues and spaces, resulting in swelling of the knee joint, but when the amount of fluid is small, the swelling of the joint is not obvious.

    2.Joint pain: Joint effusion caused by different causes can vary in pain severity. Mild pain occurs when inflammation of the synovium causes fluid to accumulate in the knee; On the other hand, when a ligament strain or meniscus injury causes fluid accumulation in the knee, the pain is more intense.
