The knee joint may get affected by bone tumour. This occurs due to uncontrolled or abnormal growth of cells in the bone that results in the formation of a lump.

Causes:

Although the exact cause of tumour is not known but it can be associated with genetics, radiation treatment, and chronic injuries to the bones.  

Symptoms:

Tumour in the bone may cause symptoms like:

• A dull ache in the affected bone that starts off as occasional and then becomes severe and constant
• Severe pain that can wake you up in the night
• Swelling at the site of the tumor
• Night sweats or fevers
• A new mass of tissue or lump
