It is often discussed in emergency care, orthopedics, sports medicine, and rheumatology because it can look like other causes of knee pain and swelling. Clinicians use this term when they are evaluating whether bacteria or other germs are affecting the knee joint space. It can occur in a natural (native) knee joint or around a knee replacement."}
