Sudden back of knee pain feels stiff/swollen after squatting/sitting, goes away just was fast. No injury. No warmth/bruising. Days with no pain then comes back. Research seems symptoms like bakers cyst, bursitis. Hope no DVT since pain isn't constant?

I am a pacemaker carrier who also has atrial fibrillation, 2 weeks ago I was diagnosed with Baker's cyst. This cyst is behind my left knee, I was put on anti-inflammatories, they're almost finished and I'm still in pain and both my feet still swell.
