You may have a ruptured Baker's cyst. If it is the case, you can do these: applying ice or a cold pack to the affected area, keeping your calf elevated, taking over-the-counter medications for pain and inflammation, using an elastic wrap or brace to support your knee, resting, avoiding strenuous activity. Take care!
