Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I fell one month ago on right knee, knee filled up with blood, had it aspirated 100 cc s of blood - it filled again 120 cc aspirated in ER. Now it has filled again and the knee cap has a fracture and the tibia is bruised and bleeding. Hematoma above knee has blistered like yellow liquid. can i get the knee aspirated again? It gives me relief.
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Hematoma in the Knee joint or the supra patella bursa needs to be aspirated. Since you have a patellae fracture, please do get a consultation from the Orthopedic surgeon regarding the need for surgical intervention.
Thank You!
