Knee tendon injury

Tendons play an important role in every joint of the human body, so it is not difficult to imagine how much impact a tendon injury will have on a person's normal life. The tendons around the knee are larger than those around other joints, but they are more susceptible to injury. If a person has injured the tendons around the knee, what are the treatment options?

Knee tendon rupture will cause our leg muscles to relax, resulting in inconvenience in our legs and feet. This will restrict the movement of our legs and have a serious impact on our lives and work. So we need to figure out how to treat a ruptured knee tendon to achieve successful recovery?

1. As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to heal a tendon. The recovery of tendons is a long process. We must insist on daily professional rehabilitation training under the guidance of a doctor, such as small-range leg stretching exercises. With long-term exercise, the nerve tissue of the knee tendon gradually recovers, thereby accelerating the recovery of the tendon.

2. If the tendon is completely ruptured and very serious, surgery should be performed in a large hospital, and long-leg tubular plaster should be used for fixation for 6 weeks after the operation. If there is a cruciate ligament injury, the cruciate ligament should be repaired first, and then the collateral ligament should be repaired; if there is a meniscus injury, the damaged meniscus should be removed at this time to completely eliminate future troubles.

3. During this period, your life will be inconvenient. You should contact reliable relatives and friends to take care of you, and you should not do too many activities. If conditions do not permit, you can temporarily put down your work and apply for hospitalization. Resting can help promote the recovery of your leg tendons faster.

Note:

It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. Surgery is only a preliminary stage and recovery will take a relatively long time. During this period, keep warm, avoid fatigue, and do not force yourself to do overly strenuous exercise.
