leg pain

by Marsh45, Mar 17, 2008 09:55AM
I have pain behind my knee and my leg is swollen in the calf.  I was checked for blood clot and it was negative.  I feel heat coming out of my knee when I place an ice pack on it.  It warms the ice pack quickly.  My thigh is swollen too, but all the pain is in my knee.  It hurts to touch the bones in my knee.  My ankles are a little swollen and also the calf on the other leg.  I have had a meniscus tear and arthritis in one knee and baker's cyst in the other. Should I see an orthopedic surgeon or a Vascular surgeon?  My knee is really hurting 24/7.
