I've been dealing with this chest pain since March last year. Initially, my doctor said it was costochondritis, and all my tests like X-rays and CT scans came back normal. But recently, whenever I do chest exercises or stretching, the pain gets worse. It's really starting to freak me out. Can someone explain why this is happening and when I might start feeling normal again?

I have been discovered with bakers cyst 12 cm in backside of my knee ...the knee hurts and calf muscles have swelled ...I am on medication for osteoarthritis. Will the cyst go away on its own and if drained by syringe will it come back Do I need surgery

A 12 cm Baker's cyst at the back of the knee can be large, causing pain and swelling, and may be related to osteoarthritis. While some Baker's cysts resolve on their own, this one may need treatment, possibly including aspiration (draining with a needle), and surgery is rarely needed. If drained, the cyst can return if the underlying knee problem isn't addressed.
