Heather asked Dr Chat đ€: Why does my knee hurt and have swelling behind it?
Dr Chat đ€: pain and swelling behind your knee (in the popliteal fossa) can have several causes. One of the most common is a Bakerâs cystâŠ
If swelling persists or recurs, a clinical examination and potentially a musculoskeletal ultrasound can help determine whether itâs a Bakerâs cyst, joint effusion, or soft-tissue injury.
