What are the treatments for torn knee ligaments?

Many people are not careful during activities, or suddenly fall during exercise and fall from a great height, resulting in lesions in the joints. It is very likely to cause joint damage instantly and cause knee ligament rupture. For this phenomenon, you must go to the hospital as soon as possible to receive examination and treatment as soon as possible, temporarily suppress the patient's joint pain, and avoid joint exercise for a short period of time. The treatment effect can be achieved through clinical medicine therapy.

Acupuncture knife treatment

The patient lies prone, the interspinous lesions are identified, and marked with gentian violet. Routinely disinfect the skin, use a No. 4 needle knife, and follow the four-step needle insertion method. The incision line is inserted parallel to the longitudinal axis of the spine, with a depth of 3cm to 4cm. A longitudinal incision is made and peeled off. Then the needle body is tilted upward and downward to make 1 to 2 longitudinal incisions and peels off along the sagittal plane of the spinous process at the lower edge of the superior spinous process and the upper edge of the inferior spinous process. Remove the needle knife and add cupping, the bleeding will be 2ml to 20ml, and apply a Band-Aid after removing the cup.

For those with slight displacement of the lumbar vertebrae, the lumbar oblique lever technique can be used to correct the position. Treat once every 5 to 6 days, up to 2 times.

Acupuncture

The main acupoint is Ashi point (tender point between spinous processes), combined with Yaoshu point. The patient lies prone and a 2.0-inch filiform needle is used to first insert a needle straight between the diseased spinous processes, then insert a needle obliquely in the midline direction 1 inch away from both sides, about 1.5 inches deep, and then insert the needle horizontally 1 to 1.5 inches upward at the Yaoshu point. After lifting, inserting and twisting to obtain qi, connect to the G6805 therapeutic device, which uses alternating high-frequency continuous waves and sparse and dense waves. Acupuncture treatment was started on the second day after the acupotomy treatment, once a day, 5 times as a course of treatment, and the second course of treatment was carried out after a 2-day rest.
