Does MRI work

Hello, I am in a similar situation to you, I was also injured while playing football, and Chinese football is harmful.

It is best to do an MRI about 1 and a half months after the injury, because there is a lot of fluid in the knee at the beginning of the injury, and the test results will not be ideal. During this period, in order to prevent the quadriceps atrophy that is common after a half-moon injury, you should do quadriceps exercises regularly, and I use the method of doing a squat and bending the knee to the position where the femoral is parallel to the ground and then standing up. Practice a few more sets a day.

Good luck.

The meniscus is a 2-crescent-shaped fibrocartilage located on the articular surfaces medial and lateral to the tibial plateau. The function of the meniscus is to stabilize the knee joint, disseminate the load force of the knee joint, and promote intra-articular nutrition. It is precisely because of the stable load played by the meniscus that the knee joint can be ensured to be weight-bearing for many years without injury.

Due to the location of the meniscus and its structural characteristics, the meniscus is highly susceptible to wear or external forces that cause the meniscus to be damaged and torn. Once the injury is damaged, it is difficult to heal on its own, resulting in joint reactive pain. If the ruptured meniscus is stuck between the tibial femoral joint surfaces, causing a certain direction of movement of the knee joint, and it suddenly locks up during walking (called strangulation in medical terms), if you cross the road, the consequences are unimaginable.

Therefore, meniscus injuries should be aggressively ,,, if left undone,,, it can cause damage to the femoral condyle articular surface, leading to early joint degeneration. Traditional Chinese medicine with the help of Ji-He-knee bone, external coating maintenance, relaxation of muscles and blood activation

Hello. useful, generally pay attention to maintenance care.

Common clinical manifestations after meniscal injury include localized pain, joint swelling, snapping, and locking, quadriceps atrophy, soft leg beating, and definite tenderness in the knee space or meniscus site.

Suggestions: After meniscus injury, the knee joint has severe pain, cannot be straightened automatically, and the joint is swollen. Tenderness in the knee space is an important basis for meniscal injury.

Meniscus vascularity is extremely poor, with the vast majority of the meniscus being avascular, and only the lateral 25% and 30% near the capsule have blood**. As a result, meniscus injuries often do not heal easily. Apply a cold compress followed by a hot compress.

After the hot compress, you can use Chinese herbs from the knee bones, which are hormone-free and can relieve the pain.

Hello, the meniscus is fibrocartilage tissue, and there is no blood itself, so the recovery after the injury is very slow, which brings great difficulties to the meniscus. **There are many ways to have a meniscus injury, and physiotherapy massage can improve local circulation, promote nutrient supply, and temporarily relieve symptoms, but it cannot solve the problem fundamentally. Surgical trauma, high risk, and complications are generally not considered.

At present, medicine does not have the ability to reverse the course of meniscus injury, and patients can only use painkillers, painkiller injections, and occlusion to relieve symptoms. Mild cases can be repaired with physiotherapy, while severe cases require surgery**.

Surgery**Multidactyly, using an arthroscopy, to remove a free fragment of the meniscus, or to remove the injured meniscus. Among them, the removal of the meniscus is the last resort. Patients will lose or weaken basic physiological functions such as jumping and weight-bearing after meniscus resection.

Shandong Hand and Foot Surgery Hospital specializes in ** meniscus injury.

Disease analysis: Imaging diagnosis and clinical symptoms cannot be generalized, but must be combined to make a scientific diagnosis. Some people have mild clinical symptoms but very severe imaging results; Or the imaging diagnosis is very mild, but the symptoms are very severe.

According to the results of MRI, there were no abnormalities in the medial and lateral collateral ligaments, anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments, and there were no abnormalities in the joint capsule and articular cartilage, only meniscus injury. If there is no trauma, and your clinical symptoms are not light, only 25 years old has affected normal life, and the meniscus injury of the elderly is serious enough to affect normal life. So in light of this, combined with your age, the meniscus should not be damaged to this extent.

Suggestions: It is recommended to go to the joint orthopedics department of a regular hospital, have a detailed examination, be active, and do not delay the condition. Because there is a bloodless area of the meniscus, it is difficult to ** if the lesion is in a bloodless area. In addition, if the meniscus is worn heavily, it is the main cause of osteoarthritis.

It is not clear from your MRI that there is a grade of damage, but from your symptoms combined with the return of MRI, arthroscopic surgery should be done, otherwise the pain will recur and affect normal life and sports.

The normal meniscus showed uniform hypointense shadows in all sequences of MRI, and the meniscus lesion was manifested by the change of the shape, margin, size and internal signal plexus of the meniscus, which were graded according to the method proposed by Mink and Fischer.

1 Meniscus grade injury, i.e., early degeneration (or degenerative bridging), pathologically manifested as focal or early meniscal myxoid degeneration, due to an increase in mucopolysaccharide products within the fibrocartilage matrix within the meniscus. On MRI T2Wi, there is a punctate patchy or round-like hyperintense shadow in the meniscus that does not reach the articular margin of the meniscus. This type of injury is arthroscopically normal.

2 Meniscus grade injury, i.e., severe degeneration, is a continuation of grade injury. The extent of myxoid lesions is more extensive than that of grade injury, but this does not mean that grade damage will necessarily progress to grade injury. Horizontal or oblique strip-like hyperintensity shadows appear on MRI T2WI, and the articular capsular margin can be reached before reaching the meniscus articular surface margin.

In addition, further research is needed to estimate the stability of grade meniscal injury, i.e., the likelihood of grade injury progressing to grade injury.

3 Meniscus-grade injury, i.e., tearing wax skin fissure, is manifested on MRI T2Wi as a hyperintense shadow within the meniscus reaching the articular surface margin. The manifestations of meniscus tears are complex, and it is very important to correctly determine the location, morphology and type of meniscus tears for the formulation of clinical protocols.

**I have it here, but I don't know how to get it in the book.

Under the premise of disease symptoms, such as local redness, swelling, heat and pain in the joint, deformity, and then do auxiliary examinations, as you said MRI, can be diagnosed.

Meniscus injuries are now commonly used to make arthroscopic surgery**. Generally, you can get out of bed and move 2 or 3 days after surgery, and you must be accompanied by someone to get out of bed for the first time, get up slowly, and prevent dizziness and fall again. Wear non-slip slippers.

You can use crutches, and the time and intensity are mainly borne by yourself. In the early stage, you should pay attention not to be too tired. After a week, you can do some knee-related functional exercises, flexion and extension joints.

Any functional exercise should be carried out by a doctor in combination with the actual situation of the patient.

In terms of diet, in addition to eating more foods rich in protein, calcium, and vitamins, you should also eat some foods rich in sulfur, such as asparagus, onions, cabbage, cabbage, etc. Sulfur is good for repairing joints.

The process of disease also requires a good attitude. You can listen to ** and chat with friends. Maintain good lifestyle habits.

Do a physical examination first, and if you don't consider meniscus injury, of course, you can also do not do MRI. However, if the physical examination finds that there is a problem with the meniscus, it is still recommended to do magnetic resonance, because magnetic resonance is more advantageous for meniscus examination, and other examinations are not of much value. Of course, you can also do a knee arthroscopy, but the hospital still requires you to do an MRI first.

The course you are talking about: acute meniscus injury, una**, premature weight bearing. At present, there is still chronic meniscus injury, and the atrophy of the thigh muscle on the affected side is the reason for the self-protection of the body from pain and the reduction of weight bearing.

At present, the surgical methods for chronic knee meniscus injury include: partial resection, total resection, allogeneic meniscus transplantation, autologous fascia transplantation and reconstruction of meniscus. However, surgery is not effective and should not be done lightly unless your knee symptoms are intolerable.

Conservative caution: avoid weight-bearing exercise (do not run and jump vigorously, do not climb mountains, climb buildings, etc.); Encourage non-weight-bearing exercises (eg, swimming, non-weight-bearing quadriceps curl exercises). According to the ** of osteoarthritis, oral administration of aminogrape xiangzhi sugar, diacerein and other drugs, if necessary, add sodium hyaluronate injection into the joint cavity.

To sum up, you are not suitable for the 100-meter sprint and long-distance running! But it can be swimmed, and it has an excellent pro-repair effect on the knee joint.

MR is very analytical of the meniscus and the diagnosis is often very accurate! Good**!

There is no evidence of meniscus injury on your MRI skin, and the medical history and symptoms are not typical of the meniscus. So we don't think you're having a meniscus injury.

The most likely diagnosis: chondromalacia patella.

Confirm the diagnosis of the square hollow Wang method: bilateral patellar axial radiographs.

Analysis:

There are many causes of knee pain, such as bone hyperplasia, rheumatism, cold and wind dampness, poor operation of muscles, tendons and meridians, strain, sexual strain, liver and kidney weakness, sprains, arthritis, synovitis and so on. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for examination and diagnosis, and then really carry out **. It is best to find an experienced Chinese medicine practitioner for syndrome differentiation and use Chinese medicine**.

Guidance: Or choose to take Zhengqingfeng Tingning, Qixiao Fengzhiling, Wantong Muscle and Bone Tablets, Dichlorinal Pain Suppression Tablets, Gastrodia Pills, Chasing Wind and Bone Pills, Rheumatism Strychnine Tablets, Nimesulide, etc. It can also be baked, scalded, hot compresses and other physiotherapy**.
