A member asked:

Worsening pain behind knee, decreased mobility, concerned of dvt. i have a history of pe as well.

I agree.: Concerning for DVT although there are many other things that can cause this - such as baker's cyst. Bakers cyst is usually a bulge on medial side of knee especially noticeable with full extension of knee.
