Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a D1 athlete. I go through rigorous conditioning and lifting and at some point I must have bumped my shin because I have a rock hard bump a little below my knee that s been on the bone for about a month and has gotten more and more painful. Especially when I bend my knee or go up stairs. Ice doesn t help this at all and it hurts to the touch..
Seems to me like a housemaid's knee, stop bending your knee absolute rest for 2 weeks, wear a kneecap 24x7 with analgesics like Cap Indicap SR twice daily for a week it should help or see an orthopaedic surgeon
