Suggest Treatment For Bump On Knee While Bending
I have a bump on my knee when i bend it. its abnormally big. i can t bend it past a 90 degree angle. I play football ball and my knee got hit a lot. I had an X-ray and the doctor said i was ok i just needed to ice it. i did and the pain went away but the bump stayed. i played basketball the other day and now it back to the way it was. is there a way i could drain this? what is happening???

Dear patient
U have got knee effusion due to repititive trauma.i would advise ultrasound of knee to measure collection amount. If it's more than 25 ml it needs to be drained.please visit orthopedic surgeon nearby you to drain collection.
