How to treat knee wear?

After suffering from knee joint wear, patients generally experience symptoms such as joint pain, joint swelling, weak knees, locking, and joint dysfunction. Therefore, knee joint wear will not only cause pain to patients, but also affect their normal life, so timely treatment is needed. The main treatment methods include drug therapy, diet therapy and other care methods. The following will give you a detailed introduction!

1. Drug treatment

After your knees are worn out, the hospital will generally ask you to take drugs such as chondroitin sulfate, Glucosamine, and glucosamine, which can help you restore joint cartilage. However, the effect is not particularly ideal and there are certain side effects, such as peeling, nausea, and rash.

2. Drink bone radish soup

It is said that eating bone soup can help the recovery of knee cartilage. This should come from the Chinese idea that you are what you eat. Regardless of whether the principle is scientific or not, at least drinking bone soup can play a certain positive role in the recovery of the body. You can choose common pork bones or beef bones, and stew them with radish or kelp, and drink it while it’s hot.

3. Eat collagen

Bones are severely worn, so you can eat more foods rich in collagen in your daily life. Common foods include: pig's trotters, oranges, grapes, peanuts, eggs, deep-sea fish, fungus, fish skin, pig skin, beef tendon, chicken wings, chicken feet, shark fins, white fungus, bird's nest, turtle, kelp, fish maw, etc.

4. Other nursing methods

Dietary supplements and medication are not very effective in treating knee wear and tear. You still need to start by improving your exercise method. Do not engage in excessive exercise that places heavy load on the knees, such as running, mountain climbing, basketball, etc. But it doesn't mean you shouldn't exercise, but you should control the amount of exercise. Proper exercise can develop the muscles around your knees, and they can also effectively help you protect your knee joints.
