Right Knee Feeling Squishy Like Beads Underneath, Never Got Injured While Playing. Reason For Squishy Feeling?

Hello, so my 10yr old husky son plays tackle football for the past 2yrs (not sure if this would have taken part of the reason ima explain) anyway hes never gotten injured or anything like that, he recently told me to feel his knee right above it and it felt squishy and feels like there's beads underneath it, like abean bag.(tiny beads about the size of half a pea). weird..its actually a gross feeling .so it doesnt hurt him, just feels wrong for a knee to feel like that...should feel smooth like the other one..so can you maybe figure it out What can this possibly be..if not thanks anyway...

Hello, I have read your query. In my opinion, the lumps could be of lipoma and can be easily treated with surgical intervention. Lipomas are only treated if it is causing disability or mechanical problems otherwise no treatment needed. Hope this helps you. Thanks.
