The knee joint arthrosis: What are these stages, symptoms and myths of treatment

A complex disease of the degenerative-dynist nature of the arthrosis of the knee joint, which affects the knee bone cherries.The disease most often affects the knee class of the lower limbs.Abnormal changes in cartilage and human zones, which in most cases are due to the background of injuries, are against the biological aging of the body and the violation of autoimmune nature, severely inhibit the muscle bone potential of the legs.The joint becomes rigid, loses stability, normal motor and depreciation capabilities.As a result, it gradually deforms and completely fails in the final stages.

Degeneration of joint tissues not only manifests itself in the form of physical dysfunction of the lower limbs, but also with severe painful feelings.In some cases, the pathology causes disability - paralysis of the legs.With regard to such a frustrating prognosis, it is important to identify it as early as possible and start treating it immediately.

Is important in the disease

It is important for patients to learn about the substance in order to acquire full information about the mechanism of appearance and clinical manifestations of pathology.It is immediately noted that arthrosis and arthritis are closely linked because the disease examined is the result of joint disease.But where do poorly treated illnesses come from, which ruthlessly destroys the most important bone relationship?What is the severity of gonarthrosis and what manifestations can be recognized?

The joint reasons

Degenerative-given-given pathogenesis "starts" the following factors-provotors:

• The once injured - fractures of the lower leg, knee dislocation, meniscus damage, tears and fractures of the leagues, all kinds of bruises on the knees;
• Excessive physical activity;
• sedentary lifestyle;
• High body weight index;
• Systemic pathologies rheumatoid, gouty, psoriatic, systemic lupus erythematosus;
• Genetically inherited weakness of the Ligamentum system or congenital underdevelopment of the structural elements of the joint;
• metabolic disorders and blood flow;
• hormonal failure, diabetes and other endocrine pathologies;
• Handed over or chronic infectious and inflammatory diseases.

Often people themselves become guilty of the fact that joint disease develops.Often, after being injured, they ignore the attractiveness of the specialist, preferring the first preparation of pain, home creams and the like.And a few years later, due to the inadequate treatment in the past, at best, they see a doctor with gonarthrosis.And here is a physical prevention and analgesic ointment, such as a very early course, you cannot do, often have to act radically, use surgical tactics.

Stages of destruction

In the case of orthopedics, this disease is divided into a phase, from which the specialist will in the future reject the compilation of the treatment system.The degree, localization and nature of the skeletal compound in the knee are shown by numerous diagnostic measures such as radiography, MRI, CT, ultrasound, various blood tests and urine.

There may be no question that qualitative treatment is without detailed information, both about the condition of the knee joint and the characteristics of the patient's body, as well as visiting the doctor and receiving appropriate therapeutic recommendations.Therefore, he wants to improve the quality of life, do not ignore the vision of an experienced professional, only he can say that it is possible to have a qualified conservative help or, despite his problem, only surgical intervention will be effective.

There are many stages of development of pathology, according to Kellgren, only four.Each characterizes the severity of morphological changes (the presence of osteophytes, the reduction of joint cartilage and the degree of thinness, the narrowing of the joint gap, etc.) and the clinical symptoms (limited bending/extension, the index of disorder, the nature and intensity of the pain, etc.). 

• The first stage is a joint joint - This is a disease that was just born.The external symptoms are mild or absent, the congruence and the joint shapes are satisfactory.In the X -Ray images or MRI images, small regional osteophytes follow the edge of the joint surfaces, in problem class, slow subchondral osteosclerosis and smaller bone cysts.The joint gap is usually normal or changed, but not significant.
• In case of illness second stageIn addition to the above indicators, The osteocosclerotic focus is more prominent, the Inter -Mudflow -groove is clearly visible.The patient disturbs the pain more severely and more often during walking, climbing/climbing the stairs for a long time, sometimes at night.A combination develops, the movement of the joint is inferiority, especially when bending.
• The third stage This is characterized by an irreversible degeneration and sharp progression of deformation.The joint configuration is noticeably distorted, the distance between the joint surfaces is significantly reduced, and the growth of bones in the form of increased spikes.The pain is prolonged and pronounced, and even at rest, lame has worsened.Dependence on support tools and external assistance appears. 
• The fourth stageDegenerative-given-dytelysis, if there are bulky osteophytic growth, the hyaline cartilage is completely destroyed, the joint gap disappears or barely traces, the epiphytes of the joint bones that form articulations are most deformed.The knee joint is recognized as a completely non-viable body of the muscle bone system, a person disabled. 

Symptoms and complaints

The severity of clinical manifestations depends not only on pathomorphological properties but also on the factor of individuality.In any case, few are pleasant in gonarthrosis, it is very difficult to hand over to both 2 and 3-4 tablespoons.The general list of symptoms contains the following:

• pain syndrome, primarily mechanical type (stupid, painful, sharp, sudden, periodic and constant);
• crunching appearance during movements;
• the stiffness of the joint;
• restriction of the amplitude of movements;
• Muscle weakness of the limb;
• Hyperthermia of the skin and swelling in the knee zone;
• the change in walking, which is stated and pumped by the legs;
• the instability or syndrome of the "account";
• The "jamming" of the knee, which occurs with a sudden obstruction of bone connection movements.

Important! Conservative treatment of arthrosis of the knee joint will not help if the disease has a complex path that can occur in the second stage of the development of bone-cold degeneration.Contrary to traditional conservative therapy and alternative techniques, the only way to improve the quality of life in a long lifestyle is the only way to improve the quality of life in a long lifestyle.

Conservative treatment

Non -surgical treatment methods are recommended in the initial stages of deforming arthrosis.The principle of non -surgical treatment suggests:

• Systematic implementation of physical therapy developed by a specialist;
• performing physiotherapy procedures;
• The use of painkillers is ointments, tablets, injections, etc.in the form of;
• proper nutrition and a special diet prescribed by the doctor;
• adherence to a special system of everyday physical activity;
• complete rejection of bad habits;
• Re -diagnostic control is indisputably;
• Annual visit to a special sanatorium resort at a medical institution.

The joint surgery of the knee joint

Now we get to know surgical methods that occur more frequently, as the pathology often remains unnoticed in the early stages.Basically, arthrosis should be treated in the entire "Heamday", which largely covers joint structures and affects the periarticular material.

• Endoprostics - Helps in more than 95 % of cases to complete the lost locomotive and support functions of the lower limb's knee.The operation is not easy after following complex rehabilitation, but the effect is worth it.About 3 months after installation of an artificial analogue, instead of the native joint, which has undergone irreversible abnormal changes, the full amplitude of the foot movements is returned and the pain syndrome is completely eliminated.
• Joint control - The "close" procedure of the joints, as it has an aggressive effect on biological structures, but sometimes there is a place where a person cannot be implanted.The essence of this is to remove the joint surfaces and the motionless connection of the joint bones with the special fastening tools in a favorable position.Over time, the natural fusion of the elements listed.Artificial ankylosis completely blocks joint mobility, but allows the limb to a good disorder and reduce pain.
• The osteotomy of the knee - It is also used in extreme situations, for the same reason as artrodesis, especially when endoprosttics needs to be delayed for several years.At the time of the operational meeting, the specialist carries out artificial fracture, shoots bones, and places them at a better angle to distribute the load on the cartilage.  

An irreversible pathogenesis cannot be improved with physical exercises, you need to understand this.Medicines from ointments and even the Chondroprotectors series, not to mention the advice on treating grandmother with gelatin, will not play a special role.In the neglected position, the bone-muscular device can help to prepare the bone-musculum for the upcoming operation.

Modern knee implants can withstand everyday loads while operating for at least 15 years and often 20-25 years.A person can take part in a few sports if a replacement is common.

Treating 3 degrees

Surgery is performed in 3 stages.Changes in the joint are severely pronounced, and at this stage the disease is extremely reduced by the patient's standard of living and performance.Damage to bone farmers has reached the critical point at which the tissues of the skeleton do not represent functional importance.The Hyaline casing is almost completely destroyed. 

• An important cartilage alone is not restored, including non -surgical methods.
• The end of the interaction bone has bare and flat surfaces on unnatural pressure on each other, continuously rubbed between each other, severely injured to nearby soft tissues, and are still deformed every day.
• One feels terrible pain, not to mention the lost abilities to go normally.Patients experience daily flour when dream is not a pleasure and there is no rest from pain during the day.Only one person's unit notices a relatively tolerable condition.
• Anti -inflammatory analgesic drugs usually have a slight effect but do not "function" more often.This does not make sense in Chondroprotectors, as the strengthening and fuel maintenance of the poor remains of the cartilage does not save the situation.

The consequences of 2-3 degrees of arthrosis are sometimes treated with minimally invasive surgery (arthroscopy) in which the removal of marginal osteophytes and the extracting of torn bone-cold fragments from the joint cavities.Such manipulations, as shown in the overviews, slightly relieve the patient's condition, slightly improve the motor function, but temporarily.Osteoarthrosis remains active in the knee joint and is repeated in the near future. 

The 3-4 degree pathogenesis is a very serious problem that can only be solved by much more complex reconstruction and plastic surgical tactics.To date, there is no procedure that we can compare to endoprostanism.Replacing the knee joint by prosthesis, complete repeat of mechanical properties, the configuration and size of the shapes and size of the natural organ allows the farewell to both poorly and the disability he "awarded you".

The disease progresses rapidly and is able to reach 4 degrees from moderately in a few months.Surgery should be kept as soon as possible until degenerative processes penetrate deep into the bone.Seriously damaged bones can cause difficulties by producing endoprothesis.

Many people do not know that the severity of degeneration is not comparable to conservative and non -conventional tactics, try to walk around the operation in every way, swallow a handful of pills, using ointments on the section.Someone turns to osteopaths, private doctors who practice all kinds of alternative methods.Unfortunately, you will not go against nature, healing will not come after it, and this fact must be reconciled.Therefore, throw away meaningless businesses and act carefully.

Your physical viability is completely dependent on the solution!You can continue to suffer from stiffness and pain, even though "empty" treatment methods are tested: drugs and non -standard products that do not have evidence -based efficiency in the severity of the disease.And it goes through surgical treatment and can live a full life, get rid of the past and support of the past.

There is no need to worry about surgery, modern technologies have moved far forward and today abroad will shine the knee joints with durable implants.After such an implantation at a good clinic, the risk of complications is minimal (1-2 %) and the restoration of mobility features occurs in more than 95 % of cases.After replacing the joint, the rehabilitation course follows 3-4 months, which includes:

• Physical healing through special therapeutic exercises;
• taking drugs (antibiotics, antitrombotic drugs, etc.);
• Program of physiotherapy, including myostimulation, anti -inflammatory, painkillers and wound healing procedures;
• Massage activities (later stages of rehabilitation).

Useful to know! At 1 degree, the disease can be stopped and prevented conservatively.If you do nothing and start your knee arthrosis, allowing 1 and 2 degrees to cross, medication is much more problematic, but the non -surgical approach remains appropriate for a certain category of patients.The last two stages are always an operation.

Treating 2 degrees

In the case of medium gravitational gonarthrosis, the quality of life is already quite spoiled.The sore knee is more disturbed, and the painful syndrome manifests itself more often and intense than at the beginning of the disease.The pain is pronounced immediately after waking up in the morning while lifting and landing on the stairs.Often there is a feeling of an unpleasant numbness that appears after an extended walk and in a situation in the long run.In the knee region, bending is reduced, the patient is unable to bow his leg, as required by physiology.A person begins to spare his limb and almost does not step on it, so gradual muscle atrophy occurs.

Treatment is focused without failure, which is an qualified integrated approach.

• If the doctor does not see the need for urgent surgery, it is primarily prescribed to reduce the burden on the problem class.In the presence of excessive weight, in order to be well emptied by arthrosis, the body weight should be adjusted, following the diet the doctor recommends.
• Each patient prescribes special orthopedic devices at the time of movement.Depending on the existing problem, it can be knee fasteners, compression canvas, elastic bandages, reeds, crutches, walks.
• In addition, an orthopedic traumatologist prescribes a kind of practice set that promotes strengthening and increasing the muscles of the affected limb.
• In moderately moderate manifestation, arthrosis also includes the use of drugs that contain substances in the cartilage tissues of the knee.These include compounds based on chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid injection, and drugs with glucosamine.They cannot restore the cartilage, but is saturated with nutrient components to reach the disease.
• Physical procedures are also recommended, but they are only used after the inflammatory signs disappear.For example, physical sessions with laser, magnets or ultrasound should be held at the medical facility.It improves the physiotherapy, nutrition and metabolism of bone, muscle and cartilage tissues.If you have purchased a vibro -acoustic device for home use, first find out the specialist in diagnosis and the characteristics of the device.

We have examined the principles based on the official treatment of arthrosis is based on orthopedic standards.Because many people osteoarthritis 2 tablespoons.They are very interested in the alternative methods in which they are looking for their rescue, and we offer to get to know the most popular.And we find out that they are as unique as on the internet.

Stem cells to treat the knee

We are talking about the autotransplantation of stem cells with mesinham to a patient whose knee gonarthrosis was taken by the pelvis or femur comb.According to interested sources, cell therapy will almost achieve the entire joint by activating suicide regeneration processes in the damaged segment.Thanks to this technology, the theoretically improved to improve the components of the bone-taste units.In practice, however, there is no "living" radiographic evidence that confirms that after the introduction of stem cells, the joint has become healthy.

The positive effects of stem cells on joints and bones have not been proven in doubt, as this technique has not yet been recognized in the orthopedic area.Scientists only examine and experiment with it.In addition, there is information about the unsafe effects of stem cells on the human body, which, according to highly comprehensive experts, is capable of oncology.What about the people who would pay for the procedure while being satisfied with the result?Here we can say only one thing: many patients believe for such money and eternal life, but the placebo effect doesn't work for long, don't forget.

Mud treatment

The therapeutic mud sources containing individual components (magnesium, chromium, iodine, bromine, calcium nitrate, etc.) contribute to reducing painful symptoms, increasing blood flow to sore zones and metabolism stimulating.These represent the highest value for patients with mild illness or patients who have already been crossed.It is allowed to do 2 degrees of sludge treatment if your doctor thinks that a natural medicine, in combination with the main treatment program, reduces the aggression of pathological phenomena (stop progression) and improves the general clinical picture.Mudley is practiced at the resort and the leisure -type special medical institutions.Natural healing mud is used based on peloids in the form of applications and in combination with the galvanization method (electrophoresis).

Use of geltin

Natural gelatin is a safe tool that allows you to maintain joint structures in good condition.It is recommended to consume jelly diluted in water.Some doctors review that gelatin is so faster and more productive that it affects the bone, cartilage and muscle -seeking elements.Experts emphasize that this method has no healing properties, but only promotes the prevention of arthrosis.Consequently, it can only be considered to measure consistent pathogenesis, gelatinochencence, lack of pathology, or at the earliest stages, only to measure the appearance or prevention of the appearance or progression of degenerative-date changes.If the disease is moderate and severe, this approach cannot be for preventive purposes.

Ayurveda to the joints

Modern non-conventional medicine is known for many extraordinary tendencies, including the treatment of ayurveda of the muscle system.According to this unofficial course, joint damage causes excess toxins accumulated in the body due to energy disharmony.The harmful mechanism of the damaged energy balance (cotton) is primarily a weakening of the Agni or the digestive system, which led to the accumulation of unhappy food residues (AMA) in the intestine.They release toxins that transport the blood to the joint, where harmful substances have settled and inhibit the metabolism.

According to Ayurveda, osteoarthritis is classified into several types and each type has its own treatment system, each based on the diet, the grass, theteleter, the ayurvedic tablets and powders, yoga and respiratory gymnastics, non -traditional massage, healthraining,Protective touring, used in use, used trade, definitions, definitions, definitions, used in scientific high technologies can believe that treatment with herbal powders, thoughts and other tactics will cure Ajurveda incurable deformations?!

Density

Salt is used to make a saturated saline, which is used to impregnate compression, which is applied to the sore spot for several hours.Such therapy should not be considered as an independent drug, and even more so as a miracle cure for gonarthrosis.Salt can temporarily soothe the pain, save soft tissues from edema that covers the bone structure without damaging biological structures.But it will not heal the disease and will not place the patient on the patient's feet!Its effect is purely symptomatic.The solution is produced: 100 g of salt at 1 liter of water.

It's worth getting to know yourself! Occasionally, the salt is used in a dry heated form, which is placed in a bag and the knee heating is carried out.Sometimes wet but hot bandages.Hot procedures are dangerous if the turmoil in the arthritis only exacerbates the clinical picture.Therefore, do not use such recipes without making sure that the defeat is not accompanied by a similar procedure.
