What Could Cause A Pebble Sized Muscle To Pop Up On The Sprained Knee?
twisted knee or sprain knee but i can apply full weight after one week but then every time i walk the knee show s a pebble size round thing pop s out of the side then i press it back & it s fine again! not much pain at the moment but on the first day,i couldn t bend it much with weight,without weight it s fine but as time passed i could go up stairs normally again!
It can be a prepatellar bursiitis or meniscal cyst. I would suggest you to show to orhtopaedic surgeon and find out what is the cause of this swelling. He may asked you to do ultrasound or the MRi of the knee joint. Till then you should tale Brufen for pain relief. Avoid squatting and sitting on floor or knee bending.
