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

Dear Folks in Australia,

I have just placed my third order with you for your OSMO Patches because they do work and I am so impressed with how they work. No one here at my end has ever seen anything like your patches and I love telling people about them.

I suffer from a Baker’s Cyst and so far, this is the only thing that alleviates the swelling. As you say in your literature, it doesn’t really cure the Cyst but it does give it relief. Amazing!!!

Best wishes

Hip problems

Hi,

I have just started using OSMO patches on my hip and have had some significant relief after only two nights of use.

I was wondering if they could also work on a large ganglion on a wrist?

Bursa on elbow

Hi, I want to add to your list of testimonials my experience.

I developed a bursa on my right elbow by supporting a heavy motor which was the size of a tennis ball. I was attracted by your lists of results and tried 10 patches. The bursa reduced in size to perhaps a golf ball, Determined to follow through, I bought 10 more and continued treatment.

It has now disappeared completely and not returned. I have little doubt your patches worked the miracle on my elbow and heartily endorse their claims to fame.

Bakers cyst on the knee

Hi,

I got the patches yesterday evening. I have had five knee operations on my right knee and have arthritis. I also have a baker’s cyst on the back of my knee and off to the front.

I tried it last night and I was surprised at the results and it actually took away some of the swelling. I work out every other day and I think these will help.

Thanks

Baker's cyst

To whom it may concern,

Got my patches yesterday and skeptically put one on last night.

I woke up this morning astonished, pain gone, flexibility back.

Don’t know how you discovered this but thank you. I will be ordering more as needed.

Elbow bursitis

Hi, I wanted to send you a testimonial on the patches.

I woke up one Saturday morning and saw a bulge on my elbow with fluid in there and decided to Google it. I learnt many people opted to drain it. That was not appealing to me at all!

I discovered the OSMO Patches and ordered them. After using the first 3 patches, I noticed my bursitis getting smaller. After the 9th it was almost gone, then totally gone after the 10th patch. Using your patches saved me from having a doctor drain the fluid…thanks!!!

If I know of anyone with bursitis I will be sending them to you ASAP!
