Lump near knee?!
Question: There is a lump on the side of the knee cap, it is moveable and sometimes can't be found, could this be torn cartilage, a cyst. There is pain in the morning and sometimes it locks up. That is all he told me. He had orthoscopic surgery but that did not fix it. His miniscus is very worn.

Time for a second opinion. It sounds as if the previous arthroscopic procedure did not take care of the problem. If the knee locks up, it needs to be re-examined...
