Every person who is young and full of energy hardly expects that in old age he will be bothered by a bunch of diseases and lameness. Many people imagine themselves as a young-looking pensioner with a pleasant smile who enjoys traveling and enjoys his health.
However, illnesses overtake a person precisely at the moment when he does not expect it. Joint diseases can cause especially a lot of trouble. It is very difficult to recognize the beginning of their development, since they proceed unnoticed, deforming the joints . And one day the day comes when you are struck by such severe pain that it does not allow you to move normally.
Of the joint diseases known today, the most common is arthrosis of the knee joint. Statistics show that this disease is found in every 5 inhabitants of the planet over the age of 40 years. What is especially unpleasant is that this disease occurs more often in women than in men.
What kind of troubles can arthrosis of the knee joint cause and what needs to be done to avoid this disease.
Before moving on to considering the reasons that can provoke the disease, you should find out what arthrosis of the knee joint is. This disease refers to changes in articular cartilage that are degenerative-dystrophic in nature. Experts distinguish two types of arthrosis of the knee joint: primary and secondary, when it develops against the background of other diseases.
In most cases, arthrosis of the knee joint is provoked by the following conditions:
This disease is usually divided into first, second and third degrees . Moreover, each has its own distinctive features.
At the initial stage, a person complains of pain that he experiences while walking up the stairs. Unpleasant sensations arise in the area of the knee joint, which makes it difficult for him to go down the stairs. In all other situations, nothing bothers him, so until next time his joints do not cause him any discomfort. Because of this, many people do not have a strong desire to treat their joints, believing that if everything went well with their friends, then everything will be the same for them.
Since pain occurs quite rarely at this stage, patients are in no hurry to go to the doctor , and this increases the likelihood of the disease progressing to a second, more serious stage.
At this stage of development, stiffness in movement is added to severe pain. The patient begins to experience discomfort, both during exercise and at rest. He can no longer bend and straighten his knee freely; any movement made by the joint leads to an unpleasant crunch.
Certain changes can be noticed after a visual examination: there is swelling of the joint , slight deformation. The overwhelming majority of the clinic’s patients are people who have grade 2 gonarthrosis. Having brought themselves to a state where they increasingly begin to be bothered by excruciating pain, as well as stiffness in movements, they decide to seek help from a doctor.
During this stage, the patient complains of constant severe pain in the joint and complete loss of mobility. X-ray images show the presence of dystrophic changes in cartilage tissue and a distinct deformation of the joint. In this condition, the disease progresses to deforming arthrosis.
The disease causes the greatest inconvenience at night, when arthrosis becomes even more severe. If a person is diagnosed with stage 3 arthrosis , then he needs a cane for normal movement.
To return a person to his previous way of life, a lot of time will have to be spent, and the patient will have to stock up on considerable patience. To successfully cure the disease, you must adhere to the following principles:
For treatment measures to be effective, they must be carried out under the guidance of a physician . Most patients do not know which drugs and how exactly should be used for treatment. In some cases, it is allowed to supplement medical recommendations with traditional methods, but even in this case it is necessary to obtain approval from a specialist.
The first step to begin treatment of gonarthrosis is to transfer the patient to a gentle regimen. It involves avoiding physical activity and long walking. Certain changes need to be made with nutrition: the consumption of salt, sweets and fatty foods should be minimized. It is recommended to replace unhealthy foods with fruits and vegetables rich in vitamins.
In order to improve the patient’s condition, the doctor may prescribe analgesics and antispasmodics:
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs have proven themselves well
But you can take these drugs for a short time, as they have many side effects. For this reason, it is advisable to replace them with long-acting tablets or drugs in the form of injections and injections. Using non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, it is possible to improve the patient's condition, but it will not be possible to completely eliminate the cause of the disease. Chondroprotectors are designed to solve this problem.
The most popular chondroprotectors are:
The effect of using these drugs is ensured by the ability to restore normal synthesis of synovial fluid and damaged cartilage tissue. These drugs show quick results if they are used to treat grade 1 and 2 gonarthrosis.
When using chondroprotectors in the treatment of stage 3 disease, most often no positive changes are observed.
Healing ointments, gels, creams . Used to treat affected joints in the form of rubbing and compresses. Today, pharmacies offer a wide variety of drugs in this category. But you need to choose them carefully, based on the recommendations of your doctor.
If symptoms intensify, it is necessary to completely abandon exercise, as well as massage and physiotherapy. It is not possible to carry them out in conditions where severe pain causes even more discomfort upon contact with the joint. After the disappearance of unpleasant symptoms, they return to taking medications, adding massage, exercise therapy, and physiotherapeutic methods.
are quite effective in the treatment of gonarthrosis :
Traditional medicine can also help in the treatment of this disease, which over the years has accumulated many recipes that can eliminate the symptoms of arthrosis of the knee joint.
To alleviate the patient's condition, decoctions of medicinal herbs are recommended:
They can be used as drinks or compresses . There are recipes that are based on alcohol tinctures for rubbing:
Traditional methods of treatment based on compresses with medical bile, apple cider vinegar, as well as cabbage and honey compresses have proven themselves to be effective. is somewhat unusual : to do this, you need to take pieces of fish and tie them to the affected area overnight. Although there are unlikely to be many people who can believe in the effectiveness of this method.
Keep in mind that any folk remedy should be used with caution. Before you decide to do any of these, you should discuss this issue with your doctor, otherwise you may harm yourself, which will slow down your recovery.
Osteoarthritis of the knee joint is treatable, but it is much more effective to start monitoring your joints before unpleasant symptoms arise. To avoid the development of this disease, you do not have to follow complex recommendations. You just need to familiarize yourself with the causes of the disease and take the necessary measures to avoid them:
There are few pleasant things associated with arthrosis of the knee joint: when it is very difficult for a person to move, he practically loses the joy of life . But often people bring themselves to this state out of ignorance. They pay little attention to the fact that they once had pain in their knees, believing that everything will go away on its own. But, unfortunately, everything doesn’t work out the way we want.
And in the end you have to answer for your mistakes. Fortunately, modern medicine can come to the aid of everyone and offers effective drugs to eliminate the symptoms of arthrosis of the knee joint. But they must be used correctly due to the presence of certain side effects. Therefore, you should not independently choose for yourself the list of drugs that you will use for therapy at home.
First, you must tell your doctor about your problem, who will create an individual treatment program for you . If you wish, you can supplement the prescribed therapy with traditional methods of treatment, which will increase effectiveness and help you get rid of unpleasant symptoms faster. But here it is also necessary to obtain consent to use traditional medicines from the attending physician. After all, not all people know how to use certain medications, and as a result, by not observing the dosages of medications, they cause even greater harm to their health.
Arthrosis is a chronic degenerative-dystrophic disease of the joints. The classification of most ailments is divided into acute and chronic forms. Among the possible outcomes of the disease in the acute form is complete recovery, the most favorable outcome of the chronic disease is long-term remission. If a person has been diagnosed with arthrosis, it will not be possible to completely cure it, therefore the traditional division into acute and chronic in the classical sense is not applicable to arthrosis.
The term acute arthrosis of the knee joint refers to an acute course, an exacerbation of the disease. Arthrosis of the knee joint (gonarthrosis) can develop acutely from the very beginning, but often the disease is practically asymptomatic for a long time, and by the time the patient consults a doctor, the patient is immediately diagnosed with gonarthrosis of the 2nd or even 3rd degree.
The nature of acute gonarthrosis of the 1st degree is usually post-traumatic; the disease develops after a bruise, a dislocated knee, or a broken leg. Arthrosis, provoked not by injury, but by disease, or associated with natural aging of the body, initially occurs in a mild form. Over time, the disease progresses and worsens, as joint deformation and destruction of cartilage tissue become pronounced.
The following symptoms are characteristic of arthrosis of the knee joint in the acute stage:
Stage 1 gonarthrosis is characterized by pain that occurs at the beginning of movement, combined with stiffness. In 2, they arise even with a slight load and persist when a person “disperses”, but disappear after a long rest. Starting from grade 3, the pain becomes constant and is felt even at rest. Acute pain syndrome is possible, when the slightest attempt to move the affected limb is accompanied by unbearable pain.
Starting from stage 2, visible deformation of the knee is added to the symptoms, and then a change in the axis of the limb. But these changes do not relate to the specific manifestations of acute arthrosis; the deformity does not disappear even in the remission stage; it can only be eliminated surgically.
A set of therapeutic measures helps relieve pain, eliminate swelling, increase joint mobility, and relax muscles. But under unfavorable conditions, relapse is possible.
Exacerbation of arthrosis can be provoked by:
For arthrosis of the knee joint, treatment depends on the stage and phase of the disease. A mandatory direction of drug therapy for acute arthritis is relief of inflammation and acute pain. Most physiotherapeutic procedures are contraindicated, with the exception of laser therapy and UHF.
In advanced forms, if conservative therapy does not bring relief, surgical intervention is indicated.
The following medications are prescribed:
During the period of remission, the need to take painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs disappears. Chondroprotectors can be taken for up to six months. As an auxiliary treatment, drugs are prescribed to improve metabolic processes and microcirculation. Hyaluronic acid injections can be done exclusively outside of an exacerbation.
In the remission stage, maintenance treatment is carried out, the main role is given to non-drug therapy and exercise therapy. The list of acceptable physical procedures is expanding, a more complex set of exercises is being performed, and the intensity of the load is increasing. It is easier to prevent exacerbation than to treat acute arthrosis.
For prevention purposes it is necessary:
For arthrosis in the acute stage, intensive treatment using a large number of medications is necessary. Maintenance treatment in the remission stage requires considerable effort, patience, perseverance, and is carried out over a long period of time. If you neglect the doctor’s recommendations and abandon treatment after the condition improves, an exacerbation will very soon follow.
Acute gonarthrosis progresses at a much faster rate than the disease in remission. Therefore, every effort must be made to prevent complications and increase the duration of remission.
If pain appears in the arm, you can assume the presence of arthrosis of the elbow joint, the symptoms and treatment of which depend on the stage of development. A visit to the doctor at the first signs of illness increases the chances of recovery. However, many people ignore discomfort, postponing visiting a medical facility. Over time, irreversible changes appear in the joint. The sick person loses the ability to perform usual activities and suffers from pain. At a late stage of the disease, it is impossible to completely restore the function of the elbow joint.
Osteoarthritis is a disease in which the cartilage tissue inside the joint is destroyed. The World Classification of Diseases assigned arthrosis an international code according to ICD 10 M15 - M19.
Cartilage tissue can be compared to a sponge located between the hard surfaces of the heads of bones. When the joint does not move, the “sponge” is saturated with articular (synovial) fluid. During movement, the bones exert pressure on the “sponge”. The articular fluid released from it ensures soft sliding of the articular cartilage between the heads of the bones, even under significant physical exertion. After the cessation of motor activity, all synovial fluid is absorbed into the “sponge”.
Healthy cartilage tissue is smooth, elastic and shiny. It not only allows the bones to glide during movement with virtually no friction, but also performs shock-absorbing functions. Cartilage cushions impacts, protecting bones from damage. It takes on one part of the pressure, and distributes the other over the area of the bones.
In order for cartilage tissue to cope with its task, its shape must be perfectly adjusted to the curves of the adjacent bones. The strength of a healthy joint is superior to that of metal bearings.
With arthrosis, the structure of cartilage tissue changes. She becomes:
The cartilage decreases in size and changes its shape, deforming the joint. Its surface becomes rough and covered with cracks.
The changed cartilage tissue peels off from the surface of the bone in the form of scales. In this case, a product of its breakdown is formed - cartilaginous detritus (pieces of cartilage). Cartilage particles move inside the joint and get between the rubbing surfaces. They damage the cartilage and synovium of the joint capsule, like sandpaper.
The amount of joint fluid decreases. Easy sliding of bone surfaces becomes impossible. Movements begin to be accompanied by pain and creaking. Their amplitude decreases.
Joint deformation changes the load on the tendons, ligaments and muscles involved in the motor process. They weaken, stretch or atrophy. Trying to compensate for the functions of cartilage tissue, bone tissue grows, forming bone deposits (osteophytes). Osteophytes further limit human movement.
Deforming arthrosis of the elbow joint can be triggered by trauma. Destructive processes in cartilage tissue are triggered by bone fractures, cracks, ruptures and sprains of ligaments, tendons, dislocations and severe bruises. Even minor impacts from the elbow can cause damage to the superficial layers of cartilage.
Changes in the structure of cartilage occur due to its wear and tear. Excessive or monotonous physical activity destroys cartilage tissue. The disease is often diagnosed in people whose professional activities involve constant stress on the elbow joint:
In addition, the disease manifests itself in athletes:
The disease develops in people suffering from metabolic disorders, deficiency of vitamins and microelements. Arthrosis of the elbow joint can be triggered by chronic illnesses, rheumatoid arthritis, endocrine diseases, dehydration, frequent infectious diseases, hypothermia, excess weight, and intoxication of the body.
A common cause of dysfunction of cartilage tissue is the aging of the body. The disease can cause inflammation in the joint. People who have close relatives with arthrosis are at risk.
The stage of the disease can be determined by the symptoms of arthrosis of the elbow joint.
Because articular cartilage has no nerve endings or blood vessels, its destruction may not cause any discomfort at first. Arthrosis of the elbow joint 1st degree sometimes manifests itself in minor pain and muscle stiffness. There may be difficulty moving the forearm.
A characteristic sign of developing arthrosis is an unpleasant sensation that occurs when trying to move the arm back behind the thigh, as well as when flexing and extending the elbow. The patient often mistakes such symptoms for residual effects after an injury or explains them as muscle overstrain.
It is very difficult to detect changes in cartilage tissue at the initial stage of the disease. During an X-ray examination, a barely noticeable narrowing of the joint space can be seen. If the patient suspects something is wrong in time and immediately consults a doctor, complete restoration of the functions of the elbow joint is possible.
Arthrosis of the elbow joint 2nd degree is manifested by intense pain with increased load on the arm. It is pain that most often forces the patient to see a doctor. A diseased joint bothers a person even at rest, significantly reducing his quality of life.
It is very difficult for the patient to move his arm back or bend it at the elbow. He cannot keep the hand clenched into a fist in a flexed position (Thomsen's sign). When you try to rotate and flex the forearm at the same time, the pain intensifies (Welsh's symptom). The movements are accompanied by creaking.
When examined on X-ray photographs, changes in the cartilage tissue are clearly visible. Its outline becomes uneven. Bone growths are clearly visible. An external examination may reveal swelling.
Exacerbation of the disease occurs due to the accumulation of synovial fluid. Excessive activity of the synovial capsule is caused by inflammation of its injured membranes (synovitis). Swollen tissue is hot to the touch. Damage to the capsule is accompanied by severe pain.
Treatment of stage 2 arthrosis is carried out with medications in combination with physiotherapeutic procedures.
At stage 3 of the disease, aching pain haunts the patient even at night. The range of motion of the elbow joint is significantly reduced. Simple everyday actions are given to a person with great difficulty. Trying to reduce pain, he instinctively tries to keep his hand in a fixed position.
On X-ray images, stage 3 arthrosis can be detected by destroyed cartilage, absence of joint space and multiple bone growths. The joint deformity sometimes becomes so severe that the affected arm becomes shortened. If an advanced form of arthrosis is diagnosed, treatment will not help completely restore the function of the elbow joint.
The patient is prescribed chondroprotectors. Chondroprotectors stimulate the regeneration of cartilage tissue and stop its destruction. Most often, a traditional combination drug is used containing:
It regulates metabolism in chondrocytes (the main cells of cartilage tissue) and in the intercellular substance of cartilage (matrix), in addition, it increases the resistance of chondrocytes to enzymes that cause the destruction of cartilage tissue.
To stimulate the process of regeneration of cartilage tissue, B vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B6, B9 and B12) and vitamins C, A and E are also prescribed. To increase blood flow and improve cell nutrition, vasodilators are used (Pentoxifylline, Xanthinol nicotinate) .
To reduce pain and inflammatory syndromes, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (Flamax, Ketoprofen) are used. Antioxidants (Dihydroquercetin Plus, Mexidol) suppress the processes of lipid peroxidation, reduce the formation of free radicals and inhibit the destruction of cartilage. Lipid peroxidation plays a major role in the development of arthrosis.
In case of severe pain and swelling, local anesthetics (Novocaine, Lidocaine) or hormonal drugs (Diprospan, Celeston, Kenalog, Flosteron) are injected into the affected area. During the injection, a needle is inserted into the cubital canals.
For arthrosis of the elbow, hyaluronic acid preparations (Ostenil, Fermatron, Crespin gel, Duralan) are injected into the joint. They are called "liquid prostheses". After being introduced into the joint cavity, they act as joint fluid. Medicines lubricate the surfaces, stimulate the restoration of cartilage and improve its nutrition. The drugs form a thin film on the cartilage surface, protecting it from friction and destruction.
If drug therapy does not give the desired result, surgery is prescribed.
For arthrosis of the elbow joint, ultraphonophoresis, electrophoresis with the lysine salt of ketoprofen (Flamax for injection) and vascular drugs, laser therapy, inductothermy, magnetic therapy, ultraviolet irradiation, balneotherapy, and UHF on the affected elbow joint are prescribed. In addition, applications of coolant fluids are shown.
During the period of exacerbation and subsequent recovery, the patient’s affected elbow joint is fixed with a special orthosis - a bandage.
Massage and therapeutic exercises give good results. Massage and therapeutic exercises should not be prescribed after injuries, dislocations and sprains, during exacerbation of the inflammatory process, at elevated body temperature (above 37.5? C) and during infectious diseases. Before treating arthrosis, you must wait for complete recovery. At least 3 months must pass after surgery on the elbow joint.
First, the diseased joint is pressed to the stomach, the hand is lowered down, turning it to the side opposite the patient. With a healthy hand, lightly press the hand until a slight painful sensation appears. Then you should try to lift the sore palm up, resisting the hand. The actions are alternated 3–5 times, holding each position for 5–7 seconds. For the first time, it is better to hold your hand for no more than 5 seconds.
During the second exercise, the hand remains pressed to the stomach, but the hand is tilted back. The sore hand is carefully rotated with the healthy hand, trying to point it to the shoulder on the sore side. Then they try to provide resistance to the sore hand in the direction from the shoulder. Actions alternate 3–5 times.
For the next exercise, you need to cross your legs and place your straightened sore arm on top, palm up. With a healthy hand, grab the sore hand from the outside and twist it away from you until slight pain appears. After this, the diseased hand resists for 5–7 seconds, but the healthy hand does not allow it to turn.
Remaining in the same position, the palm of the affected hand is turned down and away from you, and with the healthy hand, the inversion of the hand is increased until slight pain appears. The sore hand resists for 5–7 seconds, then the movement is repeated 3–5 more times.
For the last exercise, the painful elbow joint is placed on the knee, with the hand turned palm up. With your healthy hand, move your fingers back towards you. During resistance, you should try to lift your hand up and bend your elbow joint. The tension must occur in two directions. Abduction and tension alternate 3–5 times. Between movements you need to relax your hand.
Exercises for arthrosis of the elbow joint should be done daily 1-2 times a day for 3-4 weeks. When performing movements, you need to avoid sudden pain. Moderate tolerable pain caused by tendon strain is acceptable. The load should be increased gradually.
Treatment of arthrosis of the elbow joint with folk remedies gives good results, especially in the early stages of the disease. Traditional healers use rubbing to restore motor function of the elbow. To prepare propolis ointment, the bee product is simmered in a water bath until completely dissolved. Then add the same amount of vegetable oil to the propolis and mix the ingredients thoroughly.
When the product has cooled, it is rubbed into the sore joint. A plastic wrap and a woolen scarf are tied on top. After 6 - 8 hours, the compress is removed. It's best to do it before bed. The procedure must be repeated daily until complete recovery.
If there is no swelling, you can massage the joint by rubbing liquid honey into it. Movements should be soft and leisurely. The duration of the procedure is 15 minutes.
To eliminate arthrosis of the elbow joint, treatment may include the use of blue clay. It is diluted with warm water to a thick sour cream, spread on a piece of clean cotton cloth, applied to the sore spot and wrapped in a woolen scarf. Procedures can be repeated daily 3 times a day. Their duration is 30 minutes. Each time you need to use a new portion of clay.
It is useful to make baths with an infusion of spruce or pine needles and young cones. The raw material is poured with water until it covers it. Then boil it for 10 minutes. When the infusion has cooled to a temperature that is pleasant for the body, the elbow is immersed in it. The procedure lasts until the water cools down.
Often, people who turn to a specialist for treatment for severe pain in the knee joint are diagnosed with patellofemoral arthrosis of the knee joint. Translated from Latin, “patello” means knee, and “femoro” means thigh. From the name it is clear that the disease affects the joint located under the kneecap. In international practice, this disease is called patellofemoral syndrome, and is a manifestation of osteoarthritis of the knee. This disease most often affects older people, as well as athletes.
Arthrologists distinguish between primary and secondary femoropatellar arthrosis.
The primary form is typical when the disease manifests itself in older people due to aging of the body. The secondary form can be the result of both injury and premature wear of cartilage tissue due to changes in metabolism.
Like any destructive process in connective tissue, patellofemoral arthrosis has 3 degrees of development. First of all, they are distinguished by the following characteristics:
As the painful condition develops, the quality of life deteriorates significantly, so already at the first stage of the pathology it is worth consulting a doctor for medical help.
The reasons leading to the development of forms of arthrosis of the knee joint can be both physiological and acquired.
First of all, in order to understand a person’s predisposition to deforming arthrosis, it is worth determining what type of patella his cup belongs to. There are three forms of structure:
People with partial or complete outward displacement of the cup are at risk for the formation of patellofemoral arthrosis. Such patients should especially monitor their health if they are over 50 or play sports.
Common reasons influencing the destructive process include the following factors:
In 68% of recorded cases, knee arthrosis occurs in women, since hormonal changes in the body negatively affect the condition of bone connective tissue.
The diagnosis of patellofemoral arthrosis of the knee joint is made based on examination, as well as using special equipment.
Patellofemoral arthrosis is characterized by the following symptoms:
In diagnosis, the main role is given to a medical examination of the knee. To do this, the patient lies on the couch, bends the knee so that the main painful segments can be determined using palpation and moving the kneecap to the sides.
There are also special criteria for the behavior of the knee joint under certain conditions, which are recorded experimentally by a specialist during examination.
When prescribing treatment, it is important to distinguish patellofemoral arthrosis of the knee joint from the manifestation of more serious systemic diseases, such as osteoarthritis of the hip bone or arthrosis of the lumbosacral spine. To clarify the correct definition of the disease, you can resort to the following diagnostic methods:
During systemic diseases of bone tissue, pain can spread to neighboring joints, which can mislead the doctor when making a diagnosis.
To relieve the symptoms of this disease, the following treatment will be required:
For severe pain, treatment may require corticosteroid injections into the joint.
Important! At the first signs of knee arthrosis, you should seek treatment with mud and turpentine baths. Spa treatment is very effective in stopping the regression of joint tissue.
In order not to have to resort to at least replacing the joint with an artificial one, complex treatment should not be neglected.
Information portal about foot health. I would like to note that currently there are a huge number of causes of this disease.
