What are the home remedies for meniscal injuries?

The meniscus of the knee joint is fibrocartilage tissue, which is wedge-shaped with a thick periphery and a thin inner edge, and is half-moon when viewed from the plane, called the meniscus; It is filled between the femoral condyle and the tibial condyle and has the effect of enhancing the stability of the knee joint. The structure and function of the meniscus determine that it is one of the most vulnerable tissues in the knee joint. Meniscus injuries are more common in people who work hard and in special occupations.

Jiyutang Meniscus strengthens bones and shuluo patches, nourishes blood and invigorates blood, promotes local microcirculation, delivers nutrients to the synovial fluid in the joint cavity through local microcirculation, supplements the nutrition of the affected tissues of the joint, and then repairs the damaged meniscus to achieve the purpose of meniscus injury. It has the effect of strengthening muscles and bones, this formula can repair the damaged meniscus, dredge the circulation of qi and blood, so that the liver and blood can nourish the muscles and veins, thereby enhancing the loading capacity of the meniscus tissue, and making the knee joint more firm and stable.

The main thing about meniscus injury is cultivation, at least for more than three months, and the effect of taking medicine is not good. The meniscus has no blood circulation, it does not play any role, the external application of Chinese medicine ointment can go deep into the ** to play an anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effect, can promote the repair of the meniscus, and can also eliminate and absorb the effusion, which is a very ideal method.

In the early stage of meniscus injury, the injured limb should be rested, elevated, and treated with traditional Chinese medicine to eliminate swelling and pain. After symptoms are relieved, move as soon as possible to exercise the quadriceps muscles and restore knee function. Repeated **surgery**.

1.Early diagnosis and treatment are timely, there is no large hematoma, the symptoms are not serious, such as no knee joint "stuck" and "locked", no quadriceps atrophy, middle-aged and elderly patients or doctors judge that patients do not need surgery according to MRI, they can do not need surgery. Some of these people are able to participate in sports like normal people, but after a year and a half to two years.

2.Athletes or sports enthusiasts who want to continue playing sports will generally recommend surgery, but surgery is not a simple matter, in addition to the high cost, the recovery process also requires personal scientific workouts. In addition, it is important not to know that the operation itself is a large wound with a regular pattern, and a small number of people will have a certain degree of restriction in knee joint function after surgery.

3.In daily life, it is important to anticipate the possibility of accidents and make full use of the tools around you to help reduce the risk of meniscus injuries caused by accidents. If you get on and off the bus or go up and down the stairs, don't be in a hurry, you can use handrails to help stabilize your body and then walk.

4.In daily life, you can also add a massage, massage with a small barge grass massage cream massage, has a certain auxiliary effect on the situation, can promote **.

After meniscus injury, it is necessary to make a specific choice according to the degree of meniscus injury and the symptoms of the knee joint.

If the MRI shows that the meniscus is a first- or second-degree injury, and the patient's knee pain is not obvious, and there is no obvious sense of locking, in the early stage of the injury, a cast or external immobilization of a brace can be used. During immobilization, the affected limb should avoid walking, weight-bearing, and strenuous exercise.

If MRI shows a third-degree injury to the meniscus, and knee pain is significant, and there is a significant sense of locking, arthroscopic minimally invasive surgery is often required**.

The knee joint, the hub of movement between the thigh and calf, is the largest joint in the human body, formed by the lower end of the femur, the upper end of the tibia, and the patella (kneecap) in front of it. Sihuatang Meniscus Analgesia Patch for knee meniscus injury, starting from the overall concept of traditional Chinese medicine, in the case of knee meniscus injury, the main principles of reducing swelling and relieving pain, relaxing tendons and activating the muscles, strengthening muscles and bones, by improving the blood microcirculation in the affected area, supplementing the nutrition of surrounding tissues, so as to eliminate joint pain and swelling symptoms, strengthen joint flexion and extension function, and achieve the purpose of complete knee meniscus injury!

The inner and outer femoral condyles at the lower end of the femur are hemispherical, and when the knee joint moves, it rolls and slides on a smooth "platform" at the upper end of the tibia. In order to reduce friction and vibration and distribute the pressure evenly, there is a cartilage "spacer" between the articular surfaces of the two bones. The "spacer" is crescent-shaped, one on each side, like a small bracket, the "pad" is on the tibial platform, and is fixed with the joint capsule and surrounding tendons and ligaments, and can move slightly forward and backward or inside and outside with the movement of the knee joint.

The proper name of the "spacer" is meniscus. medial meniscus with thick outer margin and thin inner margin; The lateral meniscus is slightly smaller than the inner one, but fuller and shaped like the moon of the twelfth or third lunar calendar.

If in the acute injury period, immediately carry out a plaster cast or brace external fixation of the lower limbs for about 4 weeks, in order to eliminate the synovial inflammation of the joint, after examination and clear diagnosis, it is necessary to decide on different methods such as trimming, suturing or partial excision, and total excision according to the location, nature and scope of the injury under arthroscopy. After the meniscus is damaged, it is like a bad bead inside the bearing, which must be carried out**, otherwise it will wear out the joint.

Arthroscopic technique for meniscal injury**. Arthroscopic technique is a form of minimally invasive technique with little trauma and a good way to damage the meniscus. If arthroscopic minimally invasive suture surgery is taken, the postoperative should be carried out in accordance with a strict plan, different surgical methods, the time is also different, if the excision or partial excision or revision surgery is taken, you can go to the ground three days after the operation, and the surgical trauma reaction can be recovered after the subsidence.

The best way to treat meniscus injury is based on the patient's condition, so it is very necessary to have a preliminary diagnostic examination, so it is necessary to go to a regular hospital for a preliminary diagnostic examination.

The main mechanism of meniscus injury is that when the knee joint is semi-flexed, when the body weight passes through the joint, the force of grinding and cleavage occurs, and the meniscus is stuck between the femoral condyle and the tibial plateau, and the injury is caused by sudden straightening and rotation. It is commonly found in miners, porters, and basketball and football players, etc.

1. Marginal meniscus injury can be fixed with a plaster cast of the lower limb for 3 to 4 weeks, and pay attention to quadriceps exercise.

2. Meniscectomy was performed for those who were ineffective in conservative **.

3. Depending on the location and extent of the injury, the meniscus can be sutured and partially or completely resected under arthroscopy.

4. Restoring and regenerating the meniscus is the most ideal way to regenerate the meniscus for injury.

Hello, according to the situation you described, the commonly used drugs for meniscus injury are ketoprofen gel, blood invigorating pain relief capsules, etc.

If there is obvious effusion or blood in the joint, the effusion should be withdrawn under strict aseptic operation, and arthroscopic surgery can be less invasive and the recovery is fast.

Massage is the best method for the knee joint, you can go to the massage department of a big hospital to see it.

Analysis:

Most meniscus injuries are conservative**, but if they are more severe and limit the movement of the knee joint, some can also consider surgery**.

Guidance: You can rest for a month, walk less, if there is a joint effusion that needs to be active**, strengthen functional exercises in the later stage, and if it is more serious, arthroscopic surgery can be considered**, the specific situation is subject to the local orthopedic surgeon.

Meniscus injuries can occur in the anterior, posterior, middle, or marginal parts of the meniscus. According to the morphology of tears, they can be divided into: vertical longitudinal cracks, oblique cracks, radial cracks, horizontal cracks, barrel handle cracks or irregular tears, etc., and even broken into intra-articular loose bodies.

Rest more, move around less, eat more vegetables and fruits in the diet, don't drink cow and goat milk, eat more legumes, quit other tobacco and alcohol, don't be too tired, in the early stage of meniscus injury, the injured limb should be rested, elevated, and after the symptoms are reduced, move as soon as possible, exercise the quadriceps muscles, and restore the function of the knee joint.

I'm a retired athlete and I also have a meniscus injury. The doctor is right, there is no very effective way to treat meniscus injury, you must rest, usually reduce weight-bearing and strenuous exercise, avoid lateral stress on the knee joint, if you can't avoid having to move, then you must fully prepare for the activity before the activity, sufficient warm-up and preparation activities can avoid strangulation, but the pain will be aggravated after the activity. Every day, you can protect your knee by squatting (keeping your knee at 90 degrees and your upper body standing upright) to increase the strength of your patellar ligaments and cruciate ligaments.

In short, this injury is seven points of nourishment and three points of treatment.

Meniscus belongs to soft tissue, weak regeneration, after the injury will generally cause local swelling, pain, effusion, joint activity is prone to noise, difficulty in going up and down the stairs, etc., it is difficult to recover after the injury, if you do not get ** for a long time, the affected limb can not get normal activities for a long time, it will be easy to cause muscle atrophy, need to heal these damaged tissues, the affected limb can be normal activities, muscle atrophy can be gradually recovered.

Usually you should actively self-care and use the "Sheng's knee patch", pay attention to **, and exercise appropriately, such as swimming, cycling and other sports. Avoid incorrect posture and movements that are harmful to the joints, such as hiking, sleeping at the desk for long periods of time, etc. Protect joints and reduce weight-bearing, such as using knee braces on the knee joints and using supports when sitting and standing up for long periods of time.

When you are active, you can use crutches and walkers to assist you in moving or walking.
