My wife has been suffering with a Baker's Cyst for over 3 years. Just as she took steps to get medical attention, Covid shut everything down (2 days after her MRI). Finally, she got an appt with a specialist, only to be told they can't do anything and prescribed anti-inflammatory drugs. For goodness sake, we can remotely fly a model on Mars 40 million miles away, but can't fix a Baker's Cyst?

Her left knee is noticeably swollen (one of these knees is not like the other). :-) can anyone suggest a remedy/cure? My bride would be most grateful.

Dear Raydel,

We have had success using frankincense essential oil on cysts. I use it straight a few times a day on cysts. If the oil seems too strong for her, use castor oil as a carrier oil. It is also good to help reduce cysts.

Having chronic pain behind left knee and laterally with some swelling for several days....just reapplied Castor Oil with Frankincense Oil. I will need to keep reapplying it to lessen pain. I also put ice packs on it.

Reydel, look up poultices made of French Green Clay, and/or Castor Oil.

There is a manual therapy called Fascial Stretch Therapy. They have a technique that mobilizes the tissue at the posterior knee. Speaking with one of these therapists may be helpful.

Castor oil packing using organic castor oil and heat would be worth trying. Leave pack on for one hour.

Raydel: I was diagnosed with a Baker's Cyst. My Orthopedic doc said it could be drained in his office. I have not had it done because he said mine was not that big. If it gets worse we can talk again. Talk with your Ortho doc.
