wsalam.
baker cyst is most likely due to an underlying problem in knee joint or muscles.
removing it has risk of recurrence.
leaving it has risk of rupture and sudden severe pain.
decision will depend on size and underlying cause of cyst.
you have not attached any reports. ideally you need an X-ray and mri of knee joint.

Better get examined and undergo some basic work up to know the obvious reason. Treatment can be suggested as per results of work up.
