Aneurysmal bone cyst is present inside my right knee Is there any way to remove  without operations like scooping out the cyst from bone ? It started with discomfort in my knee sometime around March 2019 and in Oct 2019 mri shown My leg started to swell I don't know why? i'm employee more of stairs as my home is in 3 floor I can strain on my leg is higher then I started putting pressure on left leg I used lot of volini spray  after doctor suggestions I stopped that at times I used have a weird feeling of fire sensation inside my knees took painkillers Its 2020 now my nerves are visible above my knee so I thought that it is variscose veins I don't know why my left leg started swelling after sometime but less compared to right I don't want operations any other alternative I'm afraid that if the cyst grows that would lead to bone fracture as it is located in the edge leading to difficulty in operation I'm not sure if I can do exercise like squats, running folding legs ?

You can try CT guided Intralesional injections. If that fails, then you think about surgery.

If it is confirmed ABC then No need for surgery . Because you are 25 yr old now and your bones have stopped growing, generally ABC regression accurs after 18-20 yr of age .observe ... repeat mri after 6 month. Keep in touch with a local orthopaedic  surgeon.
Next Steps
repeat  mri after 6 month
Health Tips
avoid sports.
