Hi, I had a reconstruction on my right knee in febuary last year, I recently noticed a hard lump at the incission point about the size of a 5-10 cent peice australian. Its sore to touch if I press around medially. Any ideas what this lump is? And how best to treat it?
Hi, Dear,Thanks for the query to Chat Doctor. I studied your query in depth. I feel concerned about it. In my opinion your hard lump at incision point is -keloid / and or /chronic cellulitis with abscess -at incision point of surgery done 1 yr back-as it hurts on touch. I would advise you to consult the knee surgeon who- would treat it with -antibiotics and NSAIDs with pus smear study-if its chronic cellulitis /and or/ with Injection escort in multiple sittings-if It's proved to be keloid by -USG/Excision biopsy. Hope you would recover fast with these health tips. Please contact again, and I would love to attend your queries promptly. Have a good time.
