Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pressure and numbness on left inner knee. Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like nerve compression due local infection , baker's cyst or gas bubbles . I would suggest you to consult orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may order CT scan , MRI or physical examination . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics , anti inflammatory along with vitamin supplement for quick healing . Doctor may also recommend surgery . For now apply warm compresses and keep it elevated while lying down .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
