A member asked:
Pain behind knee bakers cyst will it go away with massage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: The fluid that accumulates is painful because of the pressure. The joint capsule if weak, can burst, then you get pain into your calves.Be sure your DX is baker's cyst .U/s can confirm. See your dr! treatment consists of aspiration, possibly injecting a healing agent, but especially treating the underlying condition. See you dr!
