A member asked:
Knot on knee cap from ruptured quad surgery 10 years ago, now feels like bony over growth causing some pain especially when touched. is this normal ??
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Depending on the treatment/surgery that was done, there may be scarring and or bony overgrowth at the site of repair, which can become inflammed and/or tender at times. Conservative care with NSAIDs, ice/heat, or topical analgesics may help. See a physician if the symptoms are persistent or worsening.
