A member asked:

Hard lump below knee cap

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Tal David answered

Lump below kneecap: Depends on how long it has been there but a hard lump below the kneecap may be a condition called osgood-schlatter which is a calcification of a growth plate on the front of the knee.
