"It's really much better!" Aunt Wang (pseudonym) tried to stand up and move, and it felt great, and just a few hours ago, she limped and couldn't exert force on her left knee.
Three days ago, 61-year-old Aunt Wang accidentally sprained her left knee while walking the stairs. She didn't take it seriously and bought some plaster herself. After the medication was available, the symptoms did not relieve, but the knee of knee joint became more and more painful, and it was difficult to walk. With the help of my family, we found Professor Zhan Qiang, the director of Zhejiang Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital ( Hangzhou Red Cross Hospital ) and a provincial famous Chinese medicine doctor.
combined with medical history and physical examination . Professor Zhan considered that Aunt Wang is currently in the acute attack of knee osteoarthritis. After further improving the relevant examination, Professor Zhan performed acupuncture and can infusion therapy for Aunt Wang, and the symptoms were relieved on the same day. At the same time, he reminded: Weight bearing should be avoided. The follow-up visit will occur after three days before the beginning of the article will be revealed.
There are also 52-year-old Mr. Li (pseudonym), who was young and loved sports. Because of his excessive exercise, he had severe injuries to his head and knees in his early 30s. He squatted down or sat for a long time and stood up. He had to use crutches. For this reason, he went to many places to seek medical treatment, but still couldn't find a suitable treatment. Later he found Dean Zhan Qiang. After a period of targeted treatment, Mr. Li happily ran into the clinic and shouted, "I got rid of the crutch and could stand up by myself!"
According to authoritative data, the prevalence of knee osteoarthritis in China is as high as 15%, the prevalence of people over 65 years old is 50%, and the prevalence of people over 70 years old is as high as 80%. It is characterized by progressive transformation of joint cartilage, osteophyte formation at the edge of joints and changes in the reactivity of subchondral bone, which are mostly manifested as four major symptoms of knee joint pain, swelling, and malformation.
"Accidental period usually refers to the symptoms within two weeks of the onset of the disease, mainly swelling, pain, limited movement, tenderness and bone frosting. At this time, intervention and treatment as soon as possible can often achieve better results." Professor Zhan said, but unfortunately, many acute injuries to the knee joint in clinical practice have turned acute tendon injuries into chronic strains and become difficult to heal.
At present, most acute knee osteoarthritis adopts treatment methods such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, hormones and joint injections. However, previous studies have shown that traditional Chinese medicine has obvious advantages in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis, which is safe and green, has little trauma, and is more likely to be accepted by patients.
Professor Zhan has summarized the acupoint needle and can perfusion therapy after years of clinical experience, as well as the unique method of clamping the tibia and pushing the elbow to pull the knee to treat acute knee osteoarthritis. It runs through the idea of "yin and yang secret" in traditional Chinese medicine, allowing the body to seek new balance in a pathological state to alleviate the contractual tension of the soft tissue of the knee joint, improve the tibial angle, and improve the stability of the knee joint.
