Has anyone had any success using a brace to relieve knee pain caused
by a Baker's cyst? My patient is elderly, but strong and independently
mobile. He has no joint laxity in his knee in any plane, and little
swelling. Pain is severe during weight bearing and during flexion past
25 degrees. My research so far leads me to believe that the most
successful treatments are surgical. Any thoughts?
