How to treat knee joint effusion

Fluid effusion in the knee joint is a relatively common symptom. It is not a single disease, but a symptom of a certain disease. For example, synovitis often causes fluid effusion in the knee joint. We know that the structure of the knee joint is relatively complex, and the knee joint has a strong load-bearing capacity. It is also a part that is more susceptible to injury. It is easy to cause synovial injury and ligament injury, which can easily cause inflammation. Finally, it causes a decrease in antibacterial ability and causes fluid effusion in the knee joint. At this time, timely treatment should be carried out, such as Western medicine anti-inflammatory treatment, Chinese medicine conditioning treatment, usual rehabilitation exercise treatment, etc.

1. Western medicine treatment

Nowadays, when you go to the hospital, you usually receive Western medicine as the main treatment. When knee joint disease occurs in the early stage, you should go to the hospital for blood routine and urine routine tests to confirm the cause of the disease and receive symptomatic treatment. Generally, effusion in the knee joint is caused by synovitis, but the causes of synovitis vary, including rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatism, immune system and other related factors. Western medicine generally injects sodium hyaluronate into the knee. The effect varies from person to person. Some may be cured with two injections, while others may relapse after a course of treatment. It is related to the cause of the disease and physical condition. It is recommended to follow the doctor's treatment plan for a period of time to see the effect.

2. Kneeling method.

This is a method of treating knee joint diseases that the author only learned many years later. Patients can kneel on the ground or walk on the bed. This will allow qi and blood to flow downward, allowing blood and qi in the knee joint to gather and flow. When the blood and qi are sufficient, the joint disease will be improved or even cured. This is a very good method, everyone should keep trying it.

3. Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine.

Traditional Chinese medicine generally involves taking Chinese medicine, acupuncture, massage and other methods. If there is fluid accumulation in the knee, massage is not possible. You can take Chinese medicine or acupuncture according to the symptoms. Generally, you will see certain effects from taking Chinese medicine in about ten days or half a month, and you can judge whether it is suitable for you based on your physical condition.

4. Reasonable exercise

If there is fluid accumulation in the knee joint, you cannot exercise excessively, otherwise the fluid accumulation will increase. Pay more attention to rest. You can sit on the bed or on the ground and do some yoga exercises. Life lies in exercise. If you feel that you are sick and do not exercise, it will also affect your appetite, and the functions of various organs in the body will decline, which is not worth the loss.

5. Ensure adequate nutrition

The human body's own immune system has power that is hard for us to imagine. I remember reading in a book that the human body has a strong self-healing ability. For many diseases, the human body can heal itself through its own regulation even without taking medicine or injections. Therefore, it is very, very important to treat your body well, supplement the necessary nutrients, and enhance your own immunity.

6. Keep a happy mood

Many people should know this. When you are in a good mood, you will enjoy everything you eat and have energy to do anything. Your body's own immunity will also be enhanced, and diseases will quietly go away.
