Does Anyone Have Cysts on the TOP of the Knee cap?

Dec 23, 2009 - Comments: 0

Hi, I just had a Partial Knee replacement about 7 weeks ago and I have been getting cysts galore. I had 2 a month  post op and then within two weeks I have 4 new ones that have grown, they are quite the painful since two of them are really really big. Anyone have these problems? Please help me, I think I stumped my doctor on this one too.
