Causes of knee bone hyperplasia

Knee bone hyperplasia is just a type of bone hyperplasia, but the incidence of knee bone hyperplasia is still quite high, and there are many causes of knee bone hyperplasia. However, many people do not understand the causes of knee bone hyperplasia, including himself, in fact, he does not know. To put it simply, the disease of knee bone hyperplasia is actually a disease of the knee joint. However, when this kind of knee bone hyperplasia occurs, the knee joint is very painful.

The symptoms of knee bone hyperplasia are generally knee joint pain, of course there are other symptoms, which everyone should know. Knee bone hyperplasia is harmful to the human body, and the general harmfulness is not low. Therefore, only by knowing the cause of knee bone hyperplasia can we cure knee bone hyperplasia fundamentally.

The knee joint is composed of the lower end of the femur, the upper end of the tibia and the patella. It is covered by a joint capsule and contains the cruciate ligaments and meniscus. It is the most complex and largest weight-bearing joint in the human body. Osteoarthritis of the knee is also called proliferative degenerative arthritis. It is not an ordinary joint inflammation, but a long-term degenerative disease of cartilage.

Causes

1. Bone hyperplasia after fracture. The form of repair after a fracture or even a broken bone is that the bone cells around the injury continue to proliferate to form a callus. This bone hyperplasia is beneficial to the human body.

2. Calcification and ossification may occur after the surrounding soft tissue is damaged, affecting the periosteum and causing bone to grow on the periosteum. This proliferation is pathological and can cause certain symptoms.

3. As age increases, the bones of the knee joint wear out over the years and the surrounding ligaments loosen, causing joint instability and leading to lesions that cause bone hyperplasia in the corresponding areas. This kind of hyperplasia is a phenomenon of human aging. After the age of 40, most people experience bone hyperplasia, but the location and degree of hyperplasia vary.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Treatment

This disease should be treated promptly. External use of Chinese medicine Yushan ointment can promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, relax muscles and tendons, and relieve inflammation and pain, thereby achieving the goal of treating both the symptoms and the root cause. And during the treatment, you should keep warm and get more rest.

Disease hazards

1. Pain: From mild to very severe, relieved after activity, aggravated by weight bearing and frequent activities.

2. Stiffness: Resting can aggravate moderate joint stiffness, which is called "gelation". It is an elastic stiffness that is different from friction and adhesion. Stiffness in fingers or large joints can seriously affect function.

3. Swelling: Usually affects one or several joints, causing joint stiffness, pain, and sometimes swelling.

4. Limited movement: Fibrosis of the joint capsule, osteophytes, uneven joint surfaces or embedded loose bodies can reduce the range of joint movement, and fine or rough friction sounds may occur during movement.

5. Muscle atrophy: The muscles of the affected large joints atrophy and muscle tone decreases.

6. Deformity: Poor joint alignment and deformity, such as genu valgum, can be caused by uneven joint surfaces.

From the above introduction, it can be seen that there are indeed many reasons for knee bone hyperplasia, which are generally manifested as: fracture bone hyperplasia, soft tissue calcification, joint instability, etc. These are the main causes of knee bone hyperplasia. In addition, we all know that the harmful effects of this disease are generally joint pain and stiffness, and in severe cases, muscle atrophy and so on.
