A member asked:
Is pain behind the knee caused by blood clot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: If you are concerned about a blood clot you need to see your physician for the correct diagnosis. You may also need to discuss anxiety if knee pain makes you think of blood clots. Knee pain is usually due to injury or arthritis. See your doctor to also rule out a bakers cyst which is fluid leaking from the joint usually after an athletic endeaver.
