Hello. I fell two days a go off of a front porch and landed on my knee with my hand taking some of the blow. I now have a lump at the base of my kneecap. I can walk but can t extend my leg fully straight and when I go from a sitting to standing position the pain is pretty bad. Should i have this looked at?
Hello, I read carefully your query and understand your concern. The symptoms seem to be related to an injury of the knee. I suggest doing an x-ray of the knee to exclude a fracture. Meanwhile, I suggest using anti-inflammatory medications to reduce the inflammation. I also suggest using cold compresses for local application. Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again. Kind regards!  Chat Doctor.
