Pain around Knee

2019-06-16 16:22:41
Good morning Sir/Mam. My mother has been suffering from 6-8 months, a continuous pain around the back side of knee. I've used ice pack which really was effective and the pain has dropped to certain extent. I've shared a picture in which it shows the veins popping out like anything.
