A couple of days later I had an itch on my knee cap which quickly developed into a red rash with a few scabs. There has been no itching or discomfort and the rash is now about 2 weeks old and healing.

Could I have gotten herpes from viral shedding?

Last night I couldn’t sleep due to itching. This morning I threw up, started to feel joint pain on my right knee cap and very bad indigestion. Sometimes my eyes are itchy too. I have not seen any rash. I am not vaccinated against any hepatitis. Should I be concerned of any stds. I am 32 years old male from Indian origin. My first sexual encounter was in back 2005 and tested repeatedly several times for all stds. This exposure was my second.

Also there is this popping sound that happens if I rest it for awhile, then try to get up. My knee also itches to every now and then. I put ice on it every time I get a chance, and I switch it up with heat pad, but even when I get a chance to rest for a day it does not feel any better. Any ideas?

I'd been having pain on the back of my knee, as well as on each side of my knee cap. My knee had been stiffening and locking if I climbed up more than a flight of stairs.

I've been having this odd itching problem all over my body since the end of January. I first noticed it while at work and it felt like someone was standing behind me lightly poking at my head with a feather. Generally it's not an itch that I actually have to scratch - just a light brushing with my and or fingers makes the itch stop at any given location on my body. It affects my scalp quite a lot and has made it very difficult to sleep at times. It also wakes me up from sleep too occasionally.

By Sunday morning i had another bump on the right knee, it was only about 1/2 inch in diameter when it started and has by now ( monday the 14th) grown into a full grown sore covering most of my knee cap area (photo joined).

Can someone help me diagnose this and\or suggest treatment possibilities.

There is not much they can do if it is osteoarthritis apart from pain relief and replace the knee cap if it so badly damaged. As the xrays and MRI do not show much, perhaps it is not a bone problem, but that from tendons and muscles. Can you be referred by your doctor to physiotherapy or Triage where they have more time to assess your problem and give you exercises to do to strengthen the muscles that support the knee joints.

I have a rash of bumps on and around my knee cap for several years...it consists of bumps that are skin colored and slightly raised above the surface of the skin.

Woke up today and had what appears to be mosquito bites or something like it all over my body. I have one on my knuckle, two on my forearm, two on my knee cap, one on my calf and another on my thigh. They all itch, and when I scratch they become whitish in color. I have had the chicken pox before. I should also note that I live in NY and I don't think there are many mosquitoes in October, but I'm not sure. Normally I wouldn't think twice about this but I find the timing is odd.

My daughter is 6 and has very bad Molluscum behind her knees, a few on top of one of her knee caps and a few on her thighs. It started a year ago with one bump on her knee. I thought it was a wart...now I know differently. Within the past 4 months, they have exploded! She also has eczema, which I know can make it worse. We went to the pediatrician and she prescribed Aldara to apply 3 times a week, only on the bumps.
