Can A Chipped Bone Cause Sharp Pain In A Previously Injured Area, On Knee, That Has Already Healed?
I fell down concrete stairs about a month or two ago, I scraped up both my legs, the right one more than the left. After they both healed up my right leg was very tender and I got sharp pains in the area of the injury. I still get sharp pains out of no where. And it feels abnormal when I run my hand across it. It doesn t hurt to put pressure on it at all. I heard that I could if chipped a bone.

we'll it may be a cause , it would be advisable for you to get your X-rays of the knee and post them here so that we may discuss it further
as far as your question is there yes if there is a floating chip of bone piece inside the knee joint it may cause occasional pain in the knee and get resolved after sometime
if you need more clarification feel free to talk to me
