The claim that popliteal cysts can be cured at once without surgery is false and has no scientific basis. Popliteal cysts can be treated with general treatment and surgery.
1. General treatment: popliteal cyst is a benign lesion without obvious symptoms such as soreness, swelling and pain, there is no need for treatment, and it can be recovered by resting slowly. If the knee joints are painful and swollen, early functional knee exercises are needed to improve joint pain and relieve joint stiffness and activity limitation.
2. Surgery: If the symptoms still can not be improved after non-conservative treatment, you need to have arthroscopic cystectomy and other surgeries by professional doctors, and you should also make regular visits after the surgery to observe the recovery of the disease.
In conclusion, when the popliteal cyst appears, we should go to the regular hospital for examination, and then according to the doctor’s advice for treatment.
