risk factors<\/a> that make some individuals more prone to developing Baker’s cysts than others. If you find yourself mentioned in the high-risk groups for Baker’s cysts, then we suggest you increase your preventative strategies to avoid knee injury. Always warm up your knee joints before any physical activity, and make use of support sleeves if you have any weakness in your ligaments.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPeople who have a current knee injury, or have a previous history of developing Baker’s cysts, are prone to flare-ups of the condition in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Women are more inclined to develop the condition due to the structure of their hips being fuller than men. As a result, they place pressure on the inside of the knee that makes them more prone to injuring the joint. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
People between the ages of 15 to 45-years old are also at high risk of incurring knee injuries that lead to the formation of Baker’s cysts. People in this age group are active and at higher risk of placing themselves in a compromising position that leads to injury of the knee.
