Edema means swelling. Edema of the knee or elbow means there is water on the joint. This is often caused by injury.
Bursae are small fluid-filled sacs located throughout the body near joints. They help provide cushioning and reduce friction between bones, tendons, and muscles during movement. Some common locations include the shoulder, elbow, knee, and hip joints.
Fluid in the knee, known as knee effusion, is typically not associated with gangrene. Gangrene is a serious condition caused by a lack of blood supply to tissues, leading to tissue death. However, if the fluid in the knee is infected (septic arthritis), it could potentially lead to tissue necrosis and gangrene if left untreated.
This depends on how you fall. If you scratch or cut your knee, you will most likely bleed. If you bang your knee, then you will most likely get a bruise. If you bend or twist your knee in an unnatural way, then you could break, sprain, fracture, of rupture the ligaments or bone that makes up your knee.
Perhaps you have jumpers knee. It really depends on what you have done with it lately. If you are a heavy sprinter and jumper than that is probably it. Most you can do is ice it and relax, as well as finding a knee band.
I am not a doctor but I had this condition a few years ago. My lower legs were swollen (edema). Nearly every morning, within an hour or two after I woke up, both legs would start "weeping" (a clear fluid coming out of the leg). The weeping was significant enough that by 10am, my blue jeans would be soaked through from the knees down. I went from one doctor to another seeking diagnosis and treatment of this condition. No one seemed able to help. Finally, after 5 years of dealing with this, I was finally referred to a liver specialist. He found that I had cirrhossis of the liver from non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and I would die if I did not get a liver transplant. Once I started working with liver specialist, I learned that weeping legs sometimes occurred in cases of liver failure. If you have this symptom, it is important to ask your doctor to check your liver. Weeping leg edema is a condition where fluid pools and builds up in the legs. These are left over fluids from the blood that your heart pumps.

There are several types of edema, including peripheral edema (swelling in the extremities), pulmonary edema (fluid accumulation in the lungs), cerebral edema (swelling in the brain), and macular edema (swelling in the retina of the eye). Each type of edema can have different causes and treatments, depending on the underlying condition.
