Hi there, I have a query relating to my right knee. I had an ACL reconstruction in 2000. The patellar ligament was applecored and grafted and all was well. 2 years later I suffered a bucket handle tear in my medial meniscus which led to more surgery this time trimming my cartilage. 11 years on and I am feeling ok, but have recently been suffering from swelling on the RHS of the operated knee. I also have noticed over the past year that I've developed a small hard lump towards the base of the knee cap, it's not hurting, however I would like to know what it might be. Calcium maybe? One final thing, I also have what feels like an indentation in the top of my shin bone running around 2.5 cms down the front outer side. I am still actively playing sport and have little pain, but the slight swelling is concerning me a little.
Thanks.
