How long will this last? What can be done?"A Baker's cyst is a sac filled with fluid located behind the knee. They're quite common, typically affecting people between the ages of 35 and 70.Many Baker's cysts don't cause symptoms and some resolve on their own, but if they're causing nagging symptoms, like swelling, pain, and stiffness, they can be injected with a steroid to reduce swelling and inflammation.
