Is Lump Above The Knee Post Injury A Cause For Concern?
My daughter injured her knee by running into a metal pole 3 weeks ago. It was swollen and bruised. Now she has a lump (1 inch) above her knee (slightly discoloured skin over top). It is not painful when walking or doing activity. Should I have it checked out?

Hi, Yes. It should concern you. Urgently visit an orthopedic surgeon for knee X-ray. She may even needan MRI (knee joint) so do not waste time. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Diwashish Biswas, Internal Medicine Specialist
