What Causes Feeling Of Warm Liquid Behind The Knee Cap After ACL Tear?
I tore the acl in my left knee 20 years ago. It has never been repaired. They left tabs on the acl so it could be repaired at a later date. My knee really hurts when I kneel on it and I feel a warm liquid behind the knee cap. Any ideas of what this is???

Hi,
This warm liquid behind the knee cap is synovial fluid, which must be in excess. If the problem persists in the knee then you should undergo MRI again and get it repaired.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Gopal Goel, Orthopaedic Surgeon
