Hav baker's cyst in left leg fr dat had injection in knee last month, now have intense stretching pain in leg and sumtme upto hip n ankle is swollen?

Athritis? Blood clot: A Baker's cyst is really about arthritis in the knee. You will need arthritis care including physical therapy. If you have leg swelling, though, then there is something else going on - perhaps a blood clot. That needs to get checked right away. Hope that helps.
