Just wondering if anyone has any experince with a puoch/ sac of fluif forming on the back of their hips. I get one every now and again, in particular if my hips are out and having a flare.... thoughts on this would be great please and thank you

First thing I thought of was my Bakers Cyst I have gotten a few times over the past 2 years, behind my knee. I looked to see if you could get one over the hip and I read that you could. I have only gotten the fluid sac behind my knee,not hip. I had two options, to get it drained or let it rupture on its own I just let it rupture or leak and then it makes my calf swell for a week. Now I don't know if its the same thing I had, but I did a search on the internet and I used the words" bakers cyst hip". I did not know from looking at my knee the first time what I had. I received an ultrasound and that is how my bakers cyst was diagnosed. You could ask your rheumy if he has seen bakers cyst in/on the hip.Hope you feel better, take care.

thanks! have not seen my rheumy since 2006 so perhaps shoudl check in.....
