Blood clot above knee?

2018-01-01 21:52:03
I kneed a hard object a few weeks ago and now I have what feels like a blood clot right above my knee. I can still move and walk just fine, but there is a tightness when I squat or kneel

Symptoms suggest a haemarthrosis which may need aspiration. Apply Local ice compression. Medications like Enzomac and Tendocare will help.
Next Steps
get a x-ray done.
Health Tips
Clots or heamarthrosis get absorbed naturally by 2-3 weeks,but may lead to stiffness and pain.
