This was great Doc 👍

@natasha7773 3 года назад

Thank you SO MUCH. You guys calmed me down like, A TON!!!!????? everything I was reading made me fear it will rupture. It’s pretty small, but I love to lift & have goals!!! If you ever see this and could give some recommendations for the best lifts to do when you have a bakers cyst, I’d love to know!

Here's an update from me. It took 14 months for me to get back to normal. I have no pain and I can't feel the bakers cyst at all. I have full range of my legs and knees. How did that happen without knee replacement? Exercises. Continued moving all the time.

@docjenfit Год назад

WOW, Sharon! I love to hear it! We appreciate you coming back to give us an update & Thank you so much for watching this video and taking the time to put in the work!

I injured my knee 10 wks ago. X-ray shows no fracture or significant arthritis. MRI shows complex meniscus tear, Baker's cyst, bone bruise, & loose bodies. My Ortho says my knee is a MESS! I have compression wraps, a brace & have started PT, cortisone shot is being considered. Surgery may be in the future. Very painful and it's been a nightmare! The last 2 wks I have had my knee lock up 3 times. I want it to be done & over with!

@docjenfit 10 месяцев назад

So sorry to hear this. Definitely the best thing is to work with your surgeon, especially with the locking you are experiencing.

@geraldpolzinjr9670 2 года назад

I went into a walk in clinic & the doctor said not to worry about it. Now it's gotten bigger & I want it gone,removed or drained.

@docjenfit Год назад

Definitely can be annoying!

@docjenfit Год назад

We understand the frustration. Let us know if it improves!

@hummingbird7713 Год назад

I have one went to dr. He said there was nothing the could do, except do a knee replacement‼️ wtf I ask can’t you take it out. He said NO! I kept pressing him and finally he agreed to drain it. Went they side didn’t us ultra sound or go thru back. It was really painful. It pressed up against my nerves.

@mindvoyager2476 Год назад

thanks for insight into the physiology of the knee, very helpful. What I would like to see are some exercises that definitively address correcting the condition. Thx for your podcast

@docjenfit Год назад

Thank YOU for listening!

@kyrareneeLOA Год назад

Mine came from a tight left calf!! I kept noticing that calf was hurting, because muscles in spasm. The cyst came three months after a very tight calf. It has not grown, as I have been using at home silicone cupping . Not gone but much better.

@docjenfit Год назад

I've heard some people can get benefit from cupping. Have you been working on calf and ankle mobility. Hopefully some of the tips in this episode are helpful!

@helenross7751 2 года назад

Very interesting and learnt a lot and puts in all in perspective and helps me to understand it more . I have had mine for about 2 years and showed Dr . She said it would probably go away by itself but it is still there and lately been a bit uncomfortable. Sounds like I might have to rest it more.

@docjenfit 2 года назад

Thank you for stopping by, Helen! Hope to hear about your journey soon!

@heidihiyalaschleicherindig3006 Год назад

Maybe use a cold pack? You can get it drained. Or get a cortisone shot

@youknowcrimedontpay9257 2 года назад

Bakers Cyst can never go away unless you repair the mechanical issue with the knee. The fluid sac has ruptured and even after surgery it's going to reappear even after having it aspirated.

@docjenfit Год назад

Yeah it is difficult to get it to go away without a lot of conservative work! Definitely something you can become very functional with even if it doesn't go away completely!

@jamesandvicki07 3 года назад

I have had a lump/ bump behind my knee for years. I wondered what might be going on, but had no idea. Gonna make an appointment to get it checked out. Thanks! Could you maybe talk about if you have a bump in the inside of your foot near your heel? My husband says it's weird. Haha

@docjenfit 2 года назад

Glad to hear you've decided to get it checked out! We appreciate your feedback and will keep the topic in mind for future videos!

I am so afraid suddenly something pop behind inside my knee, almost i can't move,one step up the bus, omg!!what is that, then after that, i notice a lump behind my knee. It is painfull. Thank u for this ingo.

So glad it helped! Hope you can keep moving and start to build the mobility and strength back around the knee!

I have a ruptured bakers cyst my doctor sent me away with painkillers thats still ain't working. The pain in my calf and behind my knee is so bad. I'm hoping it will just go on his own now ita ruptured 😬

@monicav.4628 2 года назад

Me too! My calf looks all bruised and is very tight and painful. I cannot put my heel down on the ground. I hobble around. The doctor prescribed an anti-inflammatory and also gave me a Cortisone shot. It was better but then the fluid burst again. It’s horrible.

@jo-jo83 2 года назад

@@monicav.4628 I'm sorry to hear that the fluid leaked again 😔 I hope you get better soon. I went to a&e with really bad calf pain they said I have a ruptured cyst and gave me co-codemal to tae but they haven't helped. Back of my knee cap is a big lump and my calf is still so painful. I keep watching videos to see if there's anything I can do to stop some of the pain and how long they take to go x

@monicav.4628 2 года назад

@@jo-jo83 on RU-vid, look up lymphatic drainage massage for the lower extremities. That is supposed to help move the fluid from your calf up to your lymphatic system and where it gets disposed of. I’ve only done it twice but it seems like the circumference of my calf is less.

@jo-jo83 2 года назад

@@monicav.4628 thank you so much I will look into it 😊 once the bakers cyst is gone does it always come back? Is it a condition that repeats itself do you know xx

@monicav.4628 2 года назад

@@jo-jo83 I hope not! Since I have been doing the lymphedema exercises my pain is much better in my calf. I did it three times yesterday and today I have no pain. I still am going to sit with my leg propped up for half the day to make sure it doesn’t get worse again. Thank God I am retired and don’t have to work. Stuff around the house is piling up so I am giving my husband a work out LOL.

As long as there is no pain, keep moving! This will help all of the fluids continue to move around the body and keep those knees mobile and strong!

@ericskinner7355 4 месяца назад

Was wanting to do more running, but don't want to do more damage to my knee.

@docjenfit 4 месяца назад

There isn't really evidence that continuing to run will cause more damage. You just need to explore a bit and see how running feels for yourself and if it significantly impacts your symptoms.

@ericskinner7355 4 месяца назад

@@docjenfit everytime I run there is pain and inflammation. I've also have a Bakers cyst that has developed behind my right knee. .. so for me, running exacerbates my condition.

@cherrypeachsoda Год назад

Can you see a bakers cyst on an Xray?

@docjenfit Год назад

It depends on how big it is and how much fluid there is in the cyst. It would show up better on an MRI with contrast.

@nickie17301 Год назад

Technically they do not go away on their own. It’s hereditary. Bad knees and repetitive movement causes them too. I’ve had bakers cyst since I was a teen. The doctor said they used to whack them with a telephone book. Even though that’s not the reason or fix it’s temporarily a relief. I’ve had them rupture before. They come back. Knee surgeries don’t fix it either. Good insight on the video but for people who have them forever you just live with them. It sucks.

@docjenfit Год назад

Tough to say if it will completely go away!

@sharonpreston2826 2 года назад

What??? No doesn't go away when you bend knee. I can't bend my knee because it blocks/stops the movement. And IT HURTS! This is not a good video on bakers cyst.

Laughing? Sorry we aren't trying to laugh at anyone specifically. Not sure if you are referring to the face we have in the thumbnail?

@ReasonablySpeaking9808 4 месяца назад

This is a bad look. Talking about something so serious and debilitating to a lot of peoples lives, yet appearing so chirpy and giddy doesn’t fit well. I guess you’re not aware of it, but the audience does see it.

@865sticks 9 месяцев назад

to much talking get to the point.

@docjenfit 9 месяцев назад

Yeah we definitely get a bit chatty on these podcast episodes. Hopefully you got to some of the recommendations that we do give! :)

@jefb1497 9 месяцев назад

Dam you've chatted so much but not given vey much on how to treat it

@docjenfit 9 месяцев назад

Ultimately, there is not a lot you can conservatively do that will guarantee reducing the bump size. There is a lot you can do to help create space in the knee which I believe we talk a bit about. I know with the podcast we can be a little long winded with the chatting sometimes... haha
