Suggest Treatment For Lump In Knee Post Injury

Hello, I had a fall about two months ago and my knee has what looks like 3/4th of a golf ball bump on it. I have been putting ice on it. It doesn t hurt unless I put pressure on it. It is mostly squishy but has hard parts. I can walk normal. Is it some kind of cyst that formed from the fall?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have history of trauma. You have high chance of having hematoma formation due to extravasation of blood. You should go for MRI knee once to rule out any meniscus or ligament injury or other soft tissue injury. Then you should take treatment accordingly. Rest, anti inflammatory plus analgesic drug and ice massage is helpful. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.

Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
