A member asked:
Have pain in knee on top of it and on the sides and behind it no swelling no redness could it be blood clot?

Knee pain: Unlikely that this is a blood clot. It would not be expected that there would be pain on top of the knee and on the sides. Blood clots usually cause pain in the back of the knee primarily.
