Hi, I do Jiu jitsu for 4 hours everyday and workout at the gym. Today after practice, I noticed a soft lump below my knee cap. It does not give me pain and I did not get directly hit at the knee but do spend a lot of time kneeling on them. I am an 18 year old male. Is this anything serious?
Hi. This looks to be infrapatellar bursitis , meaning painless swelling of the coverings of the joint now showing as a swelling. Consult an Orthopedic Surgeon. Give rest till advised to continue your exercises
