HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here as I keep saying that knee joint is very fragile joint and highly vulnerable to injury your history is suggestive of possibility of some internal injury and that need to be ruled out and for that the best option is get done the MRI of knee joint hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
