Knee injury why the foot is very swollen, the knee is bruised, swollen and painful

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 soft tissue injury include: persistent local fever and swelling caused by vasomotor dysfunction, amyotrophy caused by nutritional disorders, joint instability due to 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.

Knee injury causes damage to the tendons and meridians, resulting in obstruction of the flow of meridian qi and stagnation of qi and blood. So the feet will be swollen.

Swelling and pain caused by bleeding from subcutaneous capillaries.

Blood return to the lower extremities is blocked.

Hello, in your case, I suggest that you still go to the hospital for medical treatment and clarify a few questions;

1. Is there a fracture on the radiograph? Further management is required after a fracture.

2. After the physical examination, decide whether MRI is necessary to determine whether there is meniscus and ligament injury.

3. Does the wound need to be debrided? Is intramuscular tetanus necessary? Is the wound swollen and painful already infected, and does it require dressing changes and antibiotics**?

4. Pay attention to rest, avoid strenuous activities, can I wear knee pads?

5. Remember that before the wound heals, you must keep the wound clean and dry, you can use an incandescent lamp to irradiate the wound, and feel the temperature locally, which can promote the dryness of the wound and promote wound healing.

Therefore, it is recommended that you seek medical attention in time to avoid delaying the condition, and I wish you a speedy **!

Changzhan Qigong: Everyone can practice! **All kinds of arthritis, health and fitness, martial arts, and sports must be practiced!!

It wasn't so serious, there was nothing to say at the time that there was no fracture, whether it was broken, and if it was broken, it would be infected. It's almost enough to take some medicine, if there is no wound before, it will be troublesome, you should see a doctor as soon as possible.

Go and take a picture and suspect a fractured patella.

Hello, it is estimated that you are local soft tissue swelling after a fall, subcutaneous capillary rupture, bleeding and exudation of tissue fluid, resulting in swelling, generally 2-3 days after the injury The swelling will not subside, some people will further aggravate, the fundamental purpose of the ice compress is to promote vasoconstriction, reduce exudation, and avoid further aggravation of swelling. Moderate is fine, don't get frostbite**, be sure to elevate the affected limb to promote blood circulation.

If the knee is swollen, it should be cold compress in the early stage to reduce bleeding, and after 2 days, it should be hot compress or apply ointment to invigorate blood circulation and promote metabolism, so that the congestion can be dissipated as soon as possible. If the effect is not good, you can go to the physical therapy department of the hospital for physical treatment.

1. Don't twist casually.

When people sprain their limbs, they often involuntarily turn or massage, but many times casual twisting will aggravate the symptoms of the injured part, especially before the exact diagnosis is made, and the sprained part should not be moved casually. If it's a limb, raise your wrist so that your blood can flow smoothly. The right way is this::

If you have an upper arm fracture, it's best to put your arm at heart level, and if you have a lower limb, raise your leg above knee level.

2. Can't apply hot compresses, but cold compresses Many of us will take a hot towel and apply it to the painful part after a fall and sprain, feeling that it will be more comfortable, but this practice is not right, because the capillary bleeding, and the hot compress makes his blood vessels further dilate, the hematoma will be more severe, and the future healing will be slow, if he is a fracture, then he can't apply a hot compress. Cold compresses can control capillary bleeding. Therefore, it is also important to apply a warm compress to the injured area, and if you feel that the pain is unbearable, you can use ice cubes to apply a cold compress.

3. Apply safflower oil After the capillaries are ruptured, applying safflower oil will speed up its blood flow and make the swelling worse. In the acute phase of the injury, that is, within 24 hours, if you use safflower oil to rub it, it will aggravate the blood exudation of the injured site and aggravate the swelling, so the use of safflower oil must be 24 hours after the injury, and it should not be used for patients with ulceration or allergies.

4. Sticking bruising ointment Bone-setting ointment can allow the drug to penetrate quickly through the human body, produce blood and qi, and relax tendons and disperse knots. However, if a fracture has already occurred in the sprain, applying a plaster will only temporarily relieve the superficial symptoms, and the fractured area will not grow well, and it is easy to misalign and eventually cause bone deformity.

Use ice packs to apply cold compresses first, and then use hot towels every night for two days. (When the capillaries are ruptured at the beginning of the injury, the ice can make the wound heal, and the wound needs to be recovered after healing, at this time the wound can not be cold, and the hot compress can make the wound more thorough.) ）

30 grams of rhubarb, 10 grams of gardenia, 10 grams of safflower. At the end of the above medicinal research, a small piece of ginger, cocktail or vinegar for external application

If there is a hematoma in it, the blood should be removed, and the bone should be fine, if there is something wrong with the bone, it is very painful and swollen.

If it is serious, it is best to go to the hospital to take a film. If you think it's not serious, you can use Yunnan Baiyao to help it, and the effect is quite good.

Disinfect with disinfectant first, clean the wound, and then rub the red potion on the wound, insist on using it every day, if you feel much better, don't rub the red potion anymore, use yellow potion instead, it is also disinfectant. If you are afraid of scarring, you can rub aloe vera on the wound when the wound is almost healed. When disinfecting with alcohol, the wound will be very burning, so you have to endure it, and if your feet are still swollen, use medicinal wine.

Apply a cold compress within 12 hours of the fall and a warm compress 24 hours later. You can use some topical medicines to reduce swelling and relieve pain, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis. Nanyang Litong "Musk Pain Relief Aerosol" is a traditional Chinese medicine ingredient, without ***, which can quickly reduce swelling and relieve pain, promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, and relax tendons and channels.

It is very effective for bruises, you can try it! Recently, you should pay attention to rest.

If the knee is swollen due to overexertion, the patient can choose a hot compress, which can speed up the local blood circulation, because the blood circulation in this part of the knee itself is relatively slow and far from the heart, which can easily lead to swelling when overworked, and the symptoms will be relieved after hot compress. In addition to exertion, other diseases can also cause swelling of the knee joint, such as rheumatoid arthritis, which is usually accompanied by swelling of the facet joints throughout the body, not only in the knee joint, but also in the knee joint, and patients can consider oral drugs such as leflunomide or methotrexate to treat the symptoms**. Gouty arthritis can also cause swelling of the knee joint during an acute attack, accompanied by pain, and can be treated with oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or drugs such as colchicine**.

Local soft tissue damage caused by trauma will be manifested as swelling in the acute stage, you can choose to use ice or external red medicine aerosol, the patient's local swelling and pain symptoms can also be improved, pay attention to the injury can not bear weight and move, should elevate the lower limbs, also has the effect of relieving local swelling.

Patients with knee effusion will also have local swelling of the knee, which can be seen after trauma or knee tuberculosis, and puncture should be performed under local anesthesia to aspirate the fluid in the knee joint, and local compression bandaging is required, and anti-infection is required after puncture**, and broad-spectrum cephalosporin antibiotics can be applied; If it is caused by tuberculosis, antituberculosis** is also required.

Swollen knees are a very common condition. Under normal circumstances, while the knee is swollen, it will also bring us a certain amount of pain, which will affect our normal walking. At this time, we have to find the cause of our knee swelling, and then adjust the symptoms.

1. External force injury: For example, if we accidentally fall during sports, resulting in a knee injury, the knee will be swollen. If we accidentally get into a car accident and are violently beaten, resulting in an injury to the knee area, we can also have a swollen knee.

At this time, not only will the knee swell, but there will also be pain and bleeding.

2. Knee synovitis: Knee synovitis is an inflammation caused by long-term chronic knee strain, trauma, cartilage degeneration and bone hyperplasia. Knee synovitis not only causes the knee to swell, but it is also a long-term swelling condition in which fluid builds.

3. Knee osteoarthritis: Knee osteoarthritis has a lot to do with our age and living environment. When our cartilage matrix synthesis and catabolism are abnormal, and the subchondral bone plate is damaged, it is easy to cause knee osteoarthritis.

In the later stage, it will cause our joints to swell and enlarge, and some patients will also have fluid accumulation in the joints, which will cause knee swelling.

4. Rheumatoid arthritis: Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic disease, and the main symptom is joint swelling and pain. This will not only cause swelling in the knee, but also cause severe pain to the patient.

Knee swelling is usually seen in synovial inflammation of the joints, as follows:

1. Synovial inflammation: it can be caused by acute exacerbation of osteoarthritis or strenuous exercise, resulting in joint cartilage damage, resulting in transient synovitis;

2. Other conditions: synovial nodules, chorionodular synovium, or rheumatoid arthritis, meniscus injury, cruciate ligament injury, etc., can cause joint effusion. At this time, it is necessary to clarify the cause of effusion, if it is caused by cold or overwork, the above predisposing factors should be avoided, pay attention to keep warm, and do not walk or climb mountains for too long distances.

Avoiding climbing too many stairs, squatting or kneeling too often, or engaging in physical activities that exceed the physical load, such as weightlifting, can help prevent fluid buildup in the knee joint.

It is recommended that appropriate physiotherapy and hot compresses can be used to reduce joint effusion and synovial exudation through the thermal effect**. Moreover, daily limb elevation training, or swimming, air cycling, jogging and other sports can not only not aggravate joint injury, but also gradually increase the pressure in the joint cavity and avoid increased exudate. In addition, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be taken orally appropriately, which can also have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

At the same time, joint puncture can also be performed to extract excess fluid, so that the joint symptoms disappear quickly and achieve individualization**. Therefore, when there is swelling and pain in the knee joint, the corresponding method should be adopted through differential diagnosis.

Hello, if the knee joint is only slightly sprained and slightly swollen, it is generally possible to return to normal life after resting for more than 10 days, if the soft tissue of the joint is sprained, the situation is very different, after the injury, there will generally be symptoms such as swelling and pain, bending discomfort, soft tissue damage itself is difficult to repair, it is difficult to recover by resting or rubbing some anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving, blood circulation and stasis drugs, the sooner the soft tissue injury is recovered, the better the recovery, and the longer the time delay, the more difficult. If the soft tissue is damaged, it is recommended to use Chinese pure Chinese medicine**, the injury within one month in the early stage** can be basically healed in about 30 to 40 days. Injuries that exceed three months are refractory and troublesome.

Before the first time, it is not recommended to exercise too much, let alone force exercise, so as not to aggravate the damage of soft tissues.

Hu Orthopedics wishes you a speedy **.
