Baker cyst
A Baker cyst (popliteal cyst) is swelling caused by knee joint fluid protruding to the back of the knee (popliteal area of the knee). When an excess of knee joint fluid is compressed by the body weight between the bones of the knee joint, it can become trapped and separate from the joint to form a fluid-filled sac, referred to as a Baker cyst.
Treatment:Baker cysts often resolve with removal of excess knee fluid in conjunction with cortisone injection. Doctor may prescribe an NSAID (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication) such as Advil or ibuprofen to help reduce the pain and inflammation.
