What should I do if I have a ligament strain, I can t exert force in my knee, and the pain in squatt

A ligament is the tissue that connects two bones. Swelling and bruising will occur at the site of the ligament strain, and the best way to strain the ligament is to do the following immediately after the strain: 1

Rest, stop exercising immediately, and don't put any more weight on the injured joint 2Cold. Ice cubes or other cold compresses can help reduce pain and swelling because lowering the temperature can reduce blood circulation.

Apply a cold compress for 15 to 20 minutes three to four times a day. 3.Oppress.

Compression of the injured area with bandages or other methods can reduce bleeding and bruising. The tightness of the bandage should be moderate, you can feel the pressure but it won't make your ends tingle or ischemia. 4.

Elevate the affected limb. The main purpose of elevating the affected limb is to reduce swelling and promote blood return. In the exercise of ligament strain, the ligament around the joint is strained, partially ruptured or completely ruptured due to external force that causes the joint to move beyond the normal physiological range, which is called joint ligament sprain.

The most common areas for joint ligament sprains are in the knees, fingers and ankles. After a sprained ligament, local swelling, pain, tenderness, and bruising may be seen with subcutaneous hemorrhage. It is very important to properly manage joint ligament sprains at an early stage.

Because ligament tissue is not easily regenerated and recovered, if it is not treated properly or misdiagnosed, it may become a chronic disease, leaving functional impairment and prone to recurrence of sprains in the future. Activity should be stopped immediately after an acute injury to reduce bleeding. Immediately flush the injured area with cold water or apply ice cubes to the area to stop bleeding.

Then cover with a bandage and compress the bandage to prevent swelling. If the ligament is completely ruptured or a concurrent fracture is suspected, a doctor must be consulted for further examination and ** after compression bandaging. After 24 to 48 hours, internal bleeding at the injured site has stopped, at which point a warm towel can be applied to compress or massage to reduce swelling and promote blood absorption.

When applying warm compresses, the temperature should not be too high, the time should not be too long, and the massage should not be too heavy, so as not to aggravate oozing, edema or rebleeding. In order to promote the recovery of joint function, attention should be paid to the combination of movement and static, and early activity should be carried out without pain. After the basic recovery, the strength exercises of the muscles around the joints should be strengthened to improve the relative stability of the joints.

It is advisable to go to the hospital for an X-ray to see if there is any bone injury. You can wrap some medicine and put a plaster. Hope. Follow-up question: Is there a way to avoid plastering? : Wrap with sand step or lacquer

First of all, if you are sure that it is not a pain from the knee, it means that you have not injured the meniscus or anything, and it may be a soft tissue injury, which is a tendon injury in folk parlance.

In addition, the wound is characterized by slow recovery, but it does not always feel labor pain, and it only occasionally hurts when it touches the wound.

Finally, the suggestion is to recuperate more, which means that you should exercise as little as possible, including walking, and wait until you feel no pain in bending or feel good before recovering from exercise.

P:S: I also injured my left knee while playing football, I didn't pay attention to it at first, I thought it was normal, and then I moved something heavy, which led to recovery and injury, and I didn't start to pay attention to it until I went to the doctor later, I hope it will help you, I wish you a speedy recovery.

Exercise isn't a matter of days? How long have you been doing leg presses? If it hurts a lot, could it be a physical problem? But generally speaking, it should be you, you just do this kind of exercise before it hurts!

Straighten your legs and press them as much as you want, and it won't hurt if you stick to them for a few days.

Athletic experts and Chinese medicine are here to help you.

You are talking about the knee fossa, in Chinese medicine, that is where the bladder meridian and kidney meridian are located, where the pain is that your tendons are contracted, it is a little problem with the bladder meridian or kidney meridian, not a ligament strain in sports medicine, and in the future, when doing stretches, it is a simple warm-up, such as jumping, kicking, etc., and you should do it step by step; The second is to do more lunge leg presses in exercise, each for 1-3 minutes; Try to do static leg press or stretch, do not do vibrating leg press; Then stand upright with open legs, straighten your waist and press down for 1-3 minutes; I have time to take a look at the vertical stretching and horizontal stretching of the external treatment method of traditional Chinese medicine promoted by Mr. Xiao Hongci, which is helpful for your posterior bladder meridian or now generally referred to as the stretching of the posterior posterior tendons, and it is also good for health.

I wish you good health.

It may be a soft tissue injury, so pay more attention to rest.

Acute trauma includes knee sprains, meniscus injuries, collateral or cruciate ligament injuries, intra-articular fluid or sometimes blood, and acute traumatic synovitis of the knee. Sometimes it can be caused by a simple synovial injury to the knee, such as a minor trauma or a long-term chronic knee strain.

Coupled with the invasion of wind, cold and dampness, the knee joint can gradually appear swollen and dysfunctional, and chronic knee synovitis is formed.

It is recommended that the external application of traditional Chinese medicine can be applied externally**, which can be applied externally to relax the muscles and invigorate the blood, reduce swelling and relieve pain, invigorate the blood and disperse stasis, dispel wind and cold, and the plaster is applied externally**, the local penetration is strong, and the drug molecules are absorbed to participate in the blood circulation, directly to the disease, and through the ** to the meridians, muscles and bones, stimulate the regulatory function of the body to enhance the blood circulation of the joints and surrounding tissues, protect the synovium, improve the nutritional status, reduce the exudation of inflammation, and promote the absorption of synovial fluid, so as to relieve the symptoms of joint stiffness, edema and pain. Promote functional recovery and achieve the best goal.

Depending on your condition, it may be knee patellar tendonitis, also known as patellar terminal disease.

Its main manifestations are pain when squatting and jumping, walking flat road is not affected, physical examination can reach deep subpatellar tenderness, according to the clinical manifestations of chronic patellar tendonitis, it is generally divided into four stages: pain after exercise; pain at the beginning of exercise, pain disappears during exercise, fatigue and pain appear after exercise; pain during exercise and at normal times; Patellar tendon tear.

Ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging are helpful, and ultrasonography can both detect and extent patellar tendinitis. It is recommended to go to the hospital as soon as possible for relevant examinations to confirm the diagnosis.

Non-surgical** methods: Non-surgical methods for chronic patellar tendonitis include reduced activity, rest, physiotherapy, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics, and local hormone injections should not be used to avoid increased fragility of the patellar tendon and cause patellar tendon tears.

Traditionally** is to apply warm compresses and rest to avoid strenuous exercise that causes knee compression, and the symptoms will gradually be relieved.

Full return to exercise averages 4 months (months).

According to the landlord's statement, the situation is not serious, but there is inflammation of the patellar tendon site, as long as you pay attention to recuperation, it can be completely **. However, if left unattended, it can cause calcified lesions in the soft tissues. Pain can be relieved by using a warm compress.

Good luck soon**!

As the largest weight-bearing joint in the human body, the anatomical results of the knee joint are more complex, as shown in the figure below

Suggestion: Once there is an injury to the knee, you must go to the orthopedic department for examination as soon as possible to clarify the injury situation and ** as soon as possible, so as to avoid sequelae, which will affect normal weight-bearing and walking, and in severe cases, it can cause bone and joint diseases.

Go for an MRI to see the extent of the ligament damage.

Be. Soft tissue injury: soft tissue refers to the human body's **, subcutaneous tissue, muscles, tendons, ligaments, joint capsule, synovial sac, nerves, blood vessels, etc.

When these tissues are subjected to external forces, they develop functional or structural abnormalities, which is called soft tissue injury. It is divided into acute injury and chronic injury. Acute injuries are divided into sprains, contusions, and strains.

Chronic injuries are called strain injuries. The clinical manifestations are pain, dysfunction, muscle spasm, deformity, etc. Complications that may occur after a soft tissue injury are:

Persistent local fever and swelling caused by vasomotor dysfunction, amyotrophy caused by nutritional disorders, joint instability caused by ligament laxity, traumatic arthritis, periarticular ossification, intra-articular loose bodies, etc.

**: All kinds of soft tissue injuries (sprains): directly use the external application of the bone powder, which is administered locally, so that the medicine can quickly penetrate into the injured part, quickly relieve pain and reduce swelling, promote blood circulation and eliminate stasis, and continue the tendons of the bones, so as to achieve the purpose, and it is safe and reliable, and it should be the first choice if there are conditions.

Pain relief and swelling for new injuries in 2-3 days, 3-6 days**. Injuries within 3 months are generally 2-3 pairs of drugs. Severe cases require 3-4 side medications.

Aged wounds require 3-6 pairs of medicines. In case of soft tissue injury, it is necessary to avoid the occurrence of nerve adhesions, muscle atrophy and other sequelae and complications. Notes:

It is forbidden for those with trauma and severe allergies. In addition, it can also be treated by taking traditional Chinese medicine to invigorate blood circulation and remove blood stasis, massage, acupuncture, warm ironing, fumigation, rubbing, fixation and other methods.

How old are you? Looking at the injuries you suffered more than ten years ago, maybe you are not young anymore, it is normal for older people to have a little pain from old injuries (I am not laughing at your age, strictly speaking, medically speaking, ordinary people are more than 20 years old even if they start to age), especially in cold and damp weather.

In your case, I think there are a few points to pay attention to: pay attention to the warmth of your legs, especially when climbing mountains or exercising in relatively shady places, try not to wear shorts; It is not advisable to do strenuous exercise, such as walking and jogging; If you have the conditions, you can soak a little medicinal wine that nourishes yin and nourishes blood, and drink a small cup every day to adjust your muscles and bones, but you can't drink a lot of alcohol, and drinking too much alcohol is counterproductive; If you feel that the pain is more serious, it is best to find a better Chinese medicine hospital to do acupuncture and physiotherapy, because the part where the ligament is located is relatively deep, and the general medicine is not easy to work, and acupuncture is needed to achieve the best part.

I hope the above experience is useful to you and I wish you good health!
