How Can Fluid Retention In The Knee Be Treated?
I fell and hit my knee to the extent the bone was bruised. Now I am can feel like pockets like bubbles of fluid floating around on my knee. What are these pockets of fluid that come and go? Should I be concerned or just continue to ice my knee when I notice this problem.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
My advice to you would be, do not bother about what your feeling right now and follow as the doctor as advises. Generally always trauma is followed by effusion. It drains of on its own. So no need to worry.
