Why Do I Have Tingling Sensation In Legs While Also Suffering From Bakers Cyst?

I recently had knee scope however i also have a bakers cyst and a cyst in my left butt. My leg continues to swell daily with tingling at different times of day. I wonder if I have a few things going on at same time. I am going for Ultra sound on leg for circulation tomorrow and wonder if the cyst in my butt can be causing problems with me leg too.

Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The tingling sensation in the leg can be related to the Bakers cyst.
The swelling can cause pain and exert pressure on nerves and blood vessels in the hollow of the knee.
This can cause numbness, circulatory problems in the lower leg and foot.
I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the inflammation.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
