A member asked:

Bruised feeling on top of kneecap- hurts with pressure & walking. yesterday no pain. comes and goes. i know to rice but what is causing it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Without an exam/tes-: Ting its difficult to be sure as to what is happening. See an orthpod to be properly diagnosed/treated. In the meanwhile rice is the way to go. It could be anything from a prepatellar bursitis, patellar subluxation, chondromalacia, or some other knee's condition. Good luck.
