Knee pain after playing ball

Basketball is the belief of most boys. They have several basketball dreams in their hearts and always have several favorite basketball stars. Basketball can exercise our body, promote physical development, and strengthen various body functions. However, there are also many things to pay attention to when playing basketball, such as preparation before exercise and stretching after exercise, which can help us reduce the injuries caused by playing basketball. What should I do if my knee hurts after playing ball?

Fat pad strain The fat pad fills the gap in the front of the knee joint, which strengthens the joint stability and reduces friction. The cause of fat pad strain may be due to trauma or long-term friction, which causes the fat pad to become congested, thickened and inflamed, and adheres to the patellar ligament, thereby restricting the movement of the knee joint.

Meniscus injury is a common injury among athletes. When the lower limbs are weight-bearing, the feet are fixed, and the knee joints are slightly flexed, if the knee is suddenly excessively internally rotated or externally extended, it may cause a meniscus tear. The joints show swelling and a feeling of slipping, and there is a popping sound when the joints move.

Traumatic synovitis of the knee The synovium of the knee is one of the main structures of the knee joint. Synovial cells secrete synovial fluid, which can keep the articular cartilage surface smooth and increase the range of joint motion. When the synovium is damaged due to trauma or excessive strain, a large amount of fluid will accumulate, increasing the pressure within the joint. If it is not eliminated in time, it can easily cause joint adhesion and affect normal activities. Patients will feel pain, swelling, tenderness in the knee joint, and a frictional and astringent sound in the synovium. The most obvious characteristic of pain is that when the knee joint is actively and extremely extended, especially when the knee extension movement is performed with a certain resistance, the pain below the patella will be aggravated, and the pain will also be significantly aggravated during passive extreme flexion.

Basketball is a sport that we all love. Playing basketball properly on a regular basis can greatly improve our physical fitness. As the saying goes, everything has its limits. Excessive exercise will inevitably cause damage to our bodies. After playing ball, drinking some electrolyte drinks can help our body's osmotic pressure reach balance as soon as possible and replenish energy quickly. The editor also hopes that everyone will protect their knees and ankles while playing basketball. I wish everyone can have a healthy body, play basketball happily, and live happily.
