Mild throbbing pain in back of lower knee. felt warm at times but can feel it more when i walk could it be a blood clot. asking for my 14yr son?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, but: Different things can cause pain and swelling in the back of the knee, a blood clot is certainly worth ruling out. Take your son to see a doctor to evaluate further.
