A member asked:
What could a squishy lump on my knee cap be ? it hurts when i'm on my knees, but not when i'm walking or standing.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bursitis: Most likely an inflamed bursa. Typically seen if you work or kneel a great deal. Knee pads help. If you continue to kneel it can become chronic. Ice and nsaids can help.
