Hello @carmon51. You mentioned you are hot one minute and cold the next. Are you referring to your knee being hot and cold, or your body? Some of these symptoms, including signs of a fever, could indicate a larger more urgent issue like infection. If you are showing signs of a fever, you may want to seek medical guidance immediately. Do you have the ability to communicate with your medical provider?
