HI Thank for asking to HCM I really appreciate your concern, looking to the history given here I could say that because of the inflammatory condition of the knee joint such worm feeling is very likely and this is the indication of arthritis, but with the right treatment this could be minimized and no need to worry about this, take care and have a nice day.
