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

Hi Toky,

I am amazed at how fast this patch worked!  I felt relief the very next morning, all the stiffness having gone and I was able to walk up and down the stairs much more easily.

Thank you so much for all your cooperation in sending a second package.  Since I have so many patches now, I am going to spread the word around for you by photocopying the instructions and giving the patch to people with bursitis.  My physiotherapist and massage therapist will be one of them.

Thank you once again.

Forever indebted!

Bursitis in the ball of the foot

Hi, I have had bursitis in the ball of my left foot for 2 months and it was suggested I have a cortisone injections. This freaked me out and decided to look online for a natural remedy and found these.

Well after 2 nights of the patches the pain and swelling have reduced a huge amount.

I am so impressed I will recommend this product to anyone who asks of the benefits.

THANK YOU FOR THE WONDERFUL, NATURAL TREATMENT.

Baker's cyst

Ok, I have an arthritic knee from playing American football and having an operation when I was 18. Going to a doctor to have it drained would cost me well over $220. I know that I will need to get this knee replaced sometime in the near future and you can only do this one time, so it is in my best interest to find a way to prolong the knee replacement.

I tried the OSMO Patch about 1-2 years ago, thinking it may be a gimmick, and it was no gimmick because it works. The pressure on my knee is lessened by morning and I can move around a lot better. I’m health conscious, watch what I eat, go to the gym 3-4 times a week and of course I work. It is important to be open to alternatives instead of the ‘give me a pill’ attitude that most of the public has. As individuals, we have to realize that we, not someone else, are the most interested in our own health.

Thank you

Baker's cyst

Hello!

I wanted to write to let you know that I truly feel that a combination of your OSMO patches and infrared laser treatments on my knee have nearly cured my knee.  I had a probable torn meniscus, and had developed a baker’s cyst behind the knee from the injury.

I am a very active 52 year old female who plays softball and ice hockey.  I work full time as a middle school teacher also.  I am currently training for the 3 day, 60 mile Susan G. Komen Walk for the Cure for Breast Cancer.  I rarely am sitting down.  I ordered 10 of your patches and have used 9 over the last 3 months.  I hadn’t had any swelling return until today.

I am confidently placing another order, because your patches truly do work. Thank you!  I can’t wait to get my next order!

To Toky – Customer care,

I wanted to inform you that I’ve ordered more patches. My partner and I were totally amazed by this product. We have seen a significant difference in the size of his bursitis. It’s getting smaller after every use, and we both feel that having extra would be beneficial. It’s a shame that it takes so long to arrive, but the results are really worth it.

Thank you for your responses and to future communications.

Joint Pain

I used 4 patches last night for first time. I received them in the mail more than a week ago. How foolish of me not to open sooner.

My 1 night of patches and I wake up without pain. OMG! These are like magic.

Thank you so much.
