A member asked:
I have a fatty tumor growing on the side of my knee replacement-about 1/2 dollar size. it becomes painfuli with exercise or when i'm on my feet-th?

Be checked : I would sure make sure your surgeon is aware. It would be a little unusual for a " fatty tumor" to cause activity related pain. The concern would be if it was related to the replacement itself, such as a soft tissue response to polyethylene debris, for example. Be seen and checked.
