A Baker’s cyst, also known as a popliteal cyst, is a fluid-filled swelling that forms at the back of the knee, often as a result of underlying knee joint issues such as arthritis or meniscus tears. This cyst can cause discomfort, stiffness, and a noticeable bulge at the back of the knee.

For Baker’s cyst, commonly used products for treatment include knee compression sleeves or wraps that provide gentle support and help manage swelling. Additionally, ergonomic cushions or pads may be employed to alleviate pressure on the knee, contributing to the relief of symptoms associated with Baker’s cyst during daily activities.
