I had total knee replacement about 8 years ago.This last year twice I have had severe swelling,pain and bruising in back of knee that I had the total knee replacement done.The front and back of knee hurts.A doctor said I probably had a bakers cist pop but does this keep happening over and over.Im concerned
Hello, I have studied your case and I do not think that it is just a backer cyst because after knee replacement there should not be such problem. I would suggest you to get a repeat x-ray of the knee joint and send it to me with clinical images of your knee joints. If there is pain and swelling then most probably it is either infection or your implant is loose. But confirmation can be done with x-rays only. Thanks
