What the fuck is this?

This shit just on the outside of my right knee



It feels like the bone protrudes more there or something. It's not like that on my left knee.

It doesn't usually bother me during the day but it gets sore and achy often after lifting, or when i am lying down for extended periods of time. It's been like that for awhile.


Any ideas? I uh...i really don't want to, nor can i afford to, take time off to go see a doctor.
@RodgerThat @Perrin Aybara @theprodgicalson @Docd187123 any ideas or anyone you know here that might have an idea? It's more of a nagging thing, doesn't really affect performance, but it's annoying sometimes.

That could be Quatto.

Is there another name for it? I couldn't find anything under that exact name.

Its just on the outside of my right knee. Just about where the bend in the leg is.

 

[Perrin Aybara]

I have no idea.

Can you hop the border to free healthcare land and get it checked out? lol

Well from what The Canadian bear tells me it will probably take 10 years for them to fix it lmao

I have health insurance through my job, so if it becomes problematic i will get it checked out. I still just dont want to though haha

I've heard that, too. Takes forever to get treated there for anything. Gunshot wound probably has six month wait list, lol.

My insurance ALWAYS hits me with hidden fees is why I don't like to bother with it. I pay the copay and then a few months later I get a bill for something really standard you'd think would be covered.

if you never noticed it before, you really should get it looked at.

Don't wait until it becomes a problem.

Looking back i wasn't clear, this has been a thing for like awhile, years even, can't remmeber when i first noticed it, just never thought about it much before.

Well, that's quite an abnormal area for a large bump like that. I'm not an expert by any means but I've never seen structure like that on a knee. it doesn't appear ordinary - as in your genetics dictating its existence. I'd be curious as well if I were you. For sure get to a doctor just for the peace of mind, since it warranted inquiry on here.

For sure...yeah i guess i will, i just wanted to see if anyone had any ideas. Got a meet coming up in a few weeks, after that i will try and schedule something to get it looked at.

From your circle that looks like your hamstring tendon insertion.

Might have scar tissue buildup there?

My first thought lol.

Possibly. What sort of things would cause that? I have never had any sort of injuries there or anything like that.

Just repetitive stress/loading can cause that.

Get it scanned if you're worried about it.
