Ligament adhesion causes and symptoms

Ligament adhesion is quite harmful. It is often caused by trauma or surgery, which will affect the tendon and cause limb movement disorders. In this case, it is necessary to carry out good treatment in time. The treatment methods include conservative treatment and surgical treatment. If the treatment effect is not good, it will cause great harm to the patient's ability to move. Let us learn about this aspect.

Symptoms of ligament adhesions

It usually occurs when the body is tired and the intensity of the load is exceeded. The two areas most susceptible to strain are the back of the thigh and the inner thigh. The main symptom of a hamstring strain is sharp pain in the leg and back when you straighten your leg. The main symptom of an adductor strain is sharp pain in the inner thigh when you lift your leg out to the side.

Tendons are a type of soft tissue. Soft tissue refers to the human body's skin, subcutaneous tissue, muscles, tendons, ligaments, joint capsules, synovial bursae, nerves, blood vessels, etc. Sprain refers to soft tissue injuries of the limb joints or body, such as sprains of muscles, tendons, ligaments, blood vessels, etc., without symptoms of fractures, dislocations, or skin and flesh damage.

Cysts generally develop slowly and rarely cause symptoms other than a localized lump and occasional localized pain.

The tenosynovium is the terminal end where ligaments, tendons, and joint capsules attach to bones. Enthesitis is a common symptom of reactive arthritis. It manifests as local pain and tenderness at the point where the tendon attaches to the bone. The Achilles tendon, plantar tendon, patellar tendon attachment points and the spine are most likely to be affected. Severely ill patients may have limited mobility or muscle atrophy due to local pain.

Treatment principles

1. Non-surgical treatment (1) 3 to 4 weeks after tendon repair surgery, the wound has healed and active and passive functional exercises of the affected limb can be performed under the guidance of a physical therapist or hand surgeon. (2) Physical therapy. (3) Chinese herbal fumigation treatment. 2. Surgical treatment: 4 to 6 months after tendon repair surgery, if there is still obvious adhesion and dysfunction of the tendon, the joint passive movement is good, and the skin covering the tendon is in good condition, tendon adhesion release surgery can be performed. Early functional training after tendon or tendon adhesion release surgery is the key to the success of the surgery.
