Arthritis and arthropathy are the leading causes of pain and inflammation in the knee joint (unless, of course, we are talking about injury).Unfortunately, neither chondroprotectors nor NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), nor surgery - fluid pumping, scraping, arthroscopy - give the necessary therapeutic effect.
All traditional methods of treating arthritis and arthritis aim to relieve pain, swelling, but do not eliminate the root of the disease, do not stop the inflammation and deformation (destruction) of articular cartilage.
How To Really Cure Arthritis And Arthritis Of The Knee Joint?
Kinesiotherapy for knee arthritis
Knee arthritis is a lesion (inflammation) of the surrounding soft tissue of the joint, which includes muscles, ligaments and tendons. Due to the swelling of the soft tissues and the pain in the knee, the range of motion in the joint is limited.
Inflammation of the knee joint is associated not only with arthritis, but also with diagnoses such as arthritis of the knee, bursitis, patellar cartilage, damage to the middle meniscus, meniscus horn, ligaments.
To relieve joint inflammation with all these zones, doctors are increasingly using periarticular sac drainage - pumping fluid from the joint (using a syringe that penetrates the joint cavity and periarticular sacs), and into the joint. then inject hormones and antibiotics.
As a result of such a "treatment" dystrophic processes develop, which lead to pathological restructuring of the bone and cartilage of the joint, to degenerative changes in the joints of the joint! Not to mention the fact that after the procedure, a person constantly experiences dull pain in the knee that interferes with movement.
And the most important thing! Drainage of the joint only temporarily relieves the swelling, but does not eliminate the cause of the inflammation.
What causes inflammation in the joints?
The question is, where does joint pain come from, inflammation, if the joint, for example, is intact, there is no infection or injury (we will talk about injuries a little later), but the knee still hurts and swells?
Inflammation, as a normal reaction, is a violation of nutrition - nutrition of joint tissues, blood circulation and microcirculation in the joint, as a result of which the joint space undergoes abnormal reconstruction and narrows, there is swelling of the joint, leading to limited mobility.
There is only one way to get rid of the swelling and the accompanying restriction of mobility in the joint - to restore the microcirculation in the joint, ie to remove the congestion in the soft tissues of the joint: muscles and ligaments.
And this can be done by activating the normal "pump" of the knee, which feeds the joint. In this case, these are the muscles of the thigh and lower leg. By forcing the large muscles of the thigh to function fully, we will be able to detect the outflow of inflammatory fluid from the articular sac of the joint, to restore the main sources of blood supply to the knee joint.
Thus, it is possible to relieve the inflammation and swelling of the joint without surgery.
Knee arthritis kinesiotherapy can be started even if there is swelling and severe flexion pain. The basis of treatment is decompression exercises in special medical equipment and rehabilitation equipment aimed at restoring lymphatic drainage, blood circulation and microcirculation of the joint. At the same time, the principle of consistency and gradual is observed. You have to be patient. You will soon feel noticeable improvements - pain, swelling will pass, the knee will start to bend much better.
questions and answers
Important questions that may arise in patients with arthritis and arthritis who are accustomed to traditional therapies.
- How to move, do exercises on simulators for joint pain, inflammation and stiffness?
- Will the movement damage the already aching joints? It is not for nothing that the official medicine is immobilization for arthritis and arthritis, wearing corsets, knee pads for joints (deformed arthropathy) and arthritis of the knee joint.
- What should I do if I have tachycardia, high blood pressure (diabetes, asthma, etc. ). . .
The motto of kinesiteraia is: "The right movement is cured, the wrong one bounces. "deep skeletal muscle without axial loading on the joints and spine. This is a safe technique that has virtually no contraindications.
An individual program is developed for each one, a set of motor exercises after consultation with the doctor of the Chinese Therapeutic Center - examination, thorough functional diagnosis of the condition of the musculoskeletal system.
Initially, 4-6 days, there may be an increase in knee pain and even an increase in swelling. But all this is related to the adaptation of the organism. You will soon feel a noticeable improvement. The repetitive cycle of muscle tension and relaxation strengthens the ligament and improves blood flow to the affected joint.
The method of kinesiotherapy allows not only to stop the course of the disease, but also in a relatively short time to fully restore the ability of the diseased joint to work. And to make the initial procedure smoother, additional methods of kinesiotherapy are recommended - cryosauna and autoplasma treatment, which today is the most effective alternative to hormonal drugs and knee surgery.
Knee joint treatment
Arthropathy of the knee joint (knee joint deformity) is a violation of the integrity of the joint, deformity of the joint surfaces, exhaustion and reduction of the thickness of the articular cartilage.
Osteoarthritis, like arthritis, can be accompanied by inflammation. Arthritis, in turn, in the absence of proper treatment leads to joints. Why; In inflammatory arthritis, the articular membrane of the joint is initially affected - a thin film of connective tissue that aligns the joint from the inside. Prolonged inflammation of this membrane can lead to cartilage destruction. And this is arthropathy.
The principles of treating arthritis and arthritis are very similar. The similarity is due to the common causes of disease - these are two stages in the development of a degenerative process with elements of tissue dystrophy.
Osteoarthritis occurs due to malnutrition of the joint, over time, the joint begins to dry out and deform. Joint malnutrition (dystrophy), in turn, occurs due to a sharp decrease in microcirculation, that is, the number of capillaries that supply the joint, the number of which depends on the number of muscles through which these capillaries pass.
All the necessary nutrients are provided by the blood, which circulates through the blood vessels. The vessels are located in the muscles and ligaments, so the muscles, in addition to motor function, also play the role of blood pumps. They pump a huge amount of blood, providing nourishment to the knee joint and a smooth metabolism. If the pump muscles provide adequate blood flow, good microcirculation, the knee joint is healthy. If the microcirculation is disturbed as a result of the deterioration of muscle work due to their atrophy, the joint is on a starvation diet and slow aging begins.
Thus, the nutrition of the knee joint and articular cartilage, blood supply and microcirculation depend directly on the work of the muscles, ligaments and tendons of this joint.
Therefore, in the treatment of joint (knee deformity), the main task of kinesiotherapy is to do the "pumps" or "pumps" of the knee: the large muscles of the thigh and lower leg, which are the sources of supplyblood and nutrition in the knee joint. Muscle loads stimulate the formation of new capillaries in these muscles, increase the adaptive capacity of muscle tissue.
In the treatment of arthropathy, special attention is paid to the biceps. This is the back of the thigh, which is rarely used in everyday life. But the main neurovascular pathways of the lower extremities pass through it - the sciatic nerve, the arteries, the veins, the lymph vessels. This muscle group plays an essential role in the transport of blood and lymph to the upper body and therefore to the joints.
An underdeveloped muscle is short and stiff. It has a weak vascular network due to the small number of muscle fibers and is not able to pass a large amount of blood on its own. Strong, elastic and long muscles are essential for maintaining the joints and spine.
In one article, it is difficult to reveal all the principles of joint treatment using the method of kinesiotherapy, we have given only a few examples for clarity.
Knee injury. Damage to the meniscus and knee joints. Is it possible to do without surgery?
Knee injuries are common and not limited to athletes. The knee joint is severely stressed in everyday life, no matter what we do. In case of rupture (damage) of the meniscus or ligaments of the knee joint, as a rule, surgery is required - complicated and expensive. But there are alternative ways. These are autoplasm therapy, active rehabilitation with special equipment, exercise therapy, joint gymnastics, physiotherapy and therapeutic massage.
Autoplasma treatment for the treatment of joints
Autoplasm therapy is most effective for inflammatory diseases of the joints, pain, swelling, arthritis and arthritis of the knee joint, arthritis of the hands, fingers, swelling of the joints, rheumatoid arthritis. A modern and safe procedure allows you to start the natural mechanisms of restoration of joint cartilage tissue, synovial fluid, ligaments, tendons, muscles and bones. At the same time, there is an improvement in the nutrition of the articular cartilage and in the strengthening of the joint. As a rule, after several sessions, significant changes appear: the joint pain, inflammation and swelling disappear and the mobility of the joints is restored.
