A Baker's Cyst is, by definition, behind the knee in the popliteal area. My first profession was physical therapist. I saw a lot of these -- they are fairly common. They usually go away by themselves and I would definitely recommend you give it "tincture of time". Beware of doctors who proceed quickly to using cold, sharp steel.
