Treatment of patellar hyperosteogeny

There are many bones that are familiar to us in our daily lives, and they actually have other names in medicine. Among them, the kneecap is called patella in medicine. The kneecap is used in daily walking and daily leg bending movements because it is an important joint in the human body. However, if the kneecap is used too frequently, bone hyperplasia may easily occur. So what is the treatment for patellar hyperosteogeny?

Treatment of patellar bone hyperplasia:

Stabilize the joints: The most important thing for early patients is to stabilize the joints. They should insist on doing static training of the quadriceps femoris and other muscles contraction. That is, lie down or sit, straighten both lower limbs, tighten the muscles in the front of the thighs, walk every day, and self-massage the legs.

Physical therapy: mainly uses acupuncture treatment, which can promote blood circulation and relieve pain, and can eliminate local edema and inflammation. Physical therapy massage helps to improve local blood circulation, has an anti-inflammatory and analgesic effect, can improve local microcirculation, and has the effect of promoting blood circulation and dredge channels.

The main characteristics of bone hyperplasia are friction sound and pain during active joint movement, which is particularly obvious when going up and down stairs, slopes or standing up from a sitting position. When pressing the patella, there may be a feeling of pressure and friction, tenderness around the patella or in the joint space, sometimes swelling and accumulation of the knee joint, and a feeling of floating patella. Sometimes the infrapatellar fat pad proliferates, hypertrophies, and hardens, and a lump can be felt next to the patellar tendon. If the thickened synovium, ruptured meniscus loose bodies or infrapatellar fat pad are stuck between the articular surfaces during joint movement, locking symptoms may occur.

The main manifestations of bone hyperplasia are hyperplasia of the joint edges and sclerosis of the joint surfaces, accompanied by inflammatory changes in the synovial tissue, causing symptoms such as pain and swelling in the patient's joints and limited movement. In the early stage of this disease, local inflammation of the joints is more obvious. If you do strenuous joint activities, it will aggravate the inflammatory lesions and make local congestion and swelling more obvious. In the late stage of the disease, the hyperplasia may affect the movement of the joints, causing varying degrees of joint movement disorders and even joint deformities. Forcing the joints to move vigorously can cause artificial injuries and make the condition more complicated.

Finally, I hope everyone can be more vigilant and pay more attention to changes in their bodies. If any unusual symptoms occur, you should seek medical attention immediately, which will help avoid many unfortunate consequences.
