What causes a Baker’s Cyst?

A Baker’s Cyst is a swelling in the back of the knee caused by the build-up of fluid inside a small sac called a bursa.

Baker’s Cysts are actually quite common. They can be caused by nearly any joint-related injury.

There are several common causes that may result in the formation of a Baker’s Cyst.

  • Such as a micro tear in the knee’s meniscal cartilage.
  • A repetitive stress injury.
  • Wear & tear in the knee, which occurs as we age.
  • An injury to the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee. Known as an ACL injury.
  • A sports-related injury that affects the knee.

The type of work that a person does may also make them more susceptible to developing a Baker’s Cyst.

Think about jobs that involve being on your knees, such as a gardener or carpenter.

Jobs that require long shifts without sitting or that place unusual weight loading through the knees, such as nursing, may be the cause of a Baker’s Cyst.

For essential advice to avoid further injury and great tips on how to naturally reduce swelling & pain due to a Baker’s cyst, be sure to explore our website as well as the rest of this video series.

Baker's cyst

Hello,

I have used your patches for my baker’s cyst. I started a while back, stopped, and found the cyst increased in size.

I have now been using it again for 1 week and the discomfort of it is considerably reduced.

The patches give such good relief

Baker's Cyst

I’ve had bakers cyst under my knee cap for 5 years and I’ve been in constant agony and haven’t been able to bend my knee for 5 years.

All my doctor could come up with was sticking needles under my knee cap, but 3 days on patches and it’s amazing swelling has almost gone, pain is a lot less and for the first time I will be able to get on floor and play with my grandson this christmas.

Thank you it means so much to me.

Dear Toky,

I wanted to let you know that the Bursitis Patches have worked on my Trochanteric Bursitis.

We will see if it flares up again. Thanks so much for answering my questions and caring about my daughter, also. It will stay with me for a long time.

May you feel blessed and loved. Have a great day!! Take Care!!

Joint Pain & Swelling of Knee and Feet

I had a work accident 5 years ago and fractured both of my feet. The specialist said feet never heel well. He was right. I suffered terrible pain and swelling constantly.

Since then l have what the Dr called an akward injury. I turned my body without turning my knees and hence fractured the soft bone in one knee… again more swelling.

Since using your product on my knee and feet l have no swelling and a lot less pain. I can actually bend my feet again and l even said welcome back!!! Such relief.

Baker's cyst

Hello,

Thanks very much….

This order is my second one…. I developed a Baker’s cyst (I think) behind my left knee, jumping up and down hard on a truckload of brush I was trying to compact…. I’m 67 years old, and the next morning, I had pain behind my knees, then a large egg behind my left knee. I searched the internet, and found your website, and ordered the patches. They worked well to bring down the swelling. Then, I jumped up and down on a shovel, digging a ditch, and the swelling returned. I used up the rest of my patches, and the swelling went down.

Thanks very much for having this natural solution to my problem: an egg behind my knee!

Fluid collected around my knee

These have been a god send….

I never actually ended up using them on a baker’s Cyst but rather on the fluid that had collected around my knee due to osteoarthritis.

What an amazing product! How do I order more?

Thank you,

Bursitis in the knee

Hi,

I ordered these patches for my son who has terrible bursitis in his knee. He owns a carpet installing business, and the constant kicking has really damaged his knee.

He took meds, had a steroid shot, nothing worked. The doctor told him he needed surgery. I had found your patches online, and they have worked for him.

Thanks so much, Sincerely
