[|Human|] Fell on left knee on feb 23, 2014. Fell on escalator. Punctured a small hole in knee that oozed for about 4 days. Had large knot on knee. I could barely walk the next few days. Pain lessened but stairs where almost impossible to manage for about a mouth after fall. Seemed to not be able to hold my weight. Now three months later, knee at times feels weak and aches. Hard knot is still on knee and now I have noticed that I have a pain in my thigh when I sit for too long. Should I break down and see a doctor or just suck it up ?
[|AI|]  Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have history of trauma.  So you have high chance of hematoma development.  It causes lump or knot.  You may have some ligament tear or meniscus injury.  You should go for MRI of knee.  It will give you exact idea regarding your injury.  Then you should take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
