Synovial fluid lubricates the knee to reduce friction and help the leg swing smoothly. A buildup of fluid may result in a fluid-filled cyst originating on the popliteal bursa (back of the knee). Some individuals may experience no pain, while others may notice swelling and inability to fully flex the knee.
A buildup of synovial fluid causes a Baker’s cyst. This can be associated with inflammation (caused by various types of arthritis) or a knee injury involving a cartilage tear.
Pain is associated with activities that involve flexion and extension of the patella (knee). This may include walking, climbing/ descending stairs and sitting.
Draining the synovial fluid is always an option… if you like needles. For those who don’t, a simple compression sleeve will help manage pain and reduce inflammation.

The GenuTrain knee brace is a medical-grade support that provides secure support for mild instability, patellofemoral syndrome, Bakers cyst, and knee tendonitis.
Its new Omega+ pad provides targeted stimulation to sensitive areas of the knee that influence pain perception and mobility. In contrast, the anatomically-contoured knitted fabric with a soft textured surface provides a gentle massage and activates the body's proprioceptors to keep the support in place.
Embedded stays with flexible bending zones and donning and doffing aids ensure a secure fit and make the support easy to put on and take off. GenuTrain is soft, breathable, and moisture-wicking, especially in the sensitive area in the back of the knee, for all-day wearing comfort.
The support's meniscus wings provide targeted massage and pain relief to the joint space, while the Hoffa pads stimulate the infrapatellar fat pad to promote the body's natural healing mechanism. The GenuTrain allows physiotherapy and gentle training to begin at an earlier stage and promotes the self-healing process in the knee.
