A Bakers cyst, or popliteal cyst, is a bulging lump behind your knee. Inside the lump is a sac filled with fluid. The cyst is caused by fluid buildup in your knee joint.

Common signs and symptoms: 1  A lump or swelling in the back of your knee when you stand or walk. 2  Knee swelling that goes away when you bend your knee. 3  Knee pain. 4  Stiffness or tightness in your knee that may get worse with movement.
