popliteal tendonitis
Introduction
Introduction to diaphragmatic tendonitis The diaphragm is from the lateral side of the femoral condyle and terminates in the triangular region on the posterior side of the humerus, along with the anterior cruciate ligament to prevent the femur from shifting forward. Running downhill and excessive internal rotation can increase the forward displacement of the femur and increase the stress of the tendon. The formation of inflammation for various reasons is called diaphragmatic tendonitis. basic knowledge Sickness ratio: 0.0001% Susceptible people: good for middle-aged and elderly Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: swelling, fracture
Cause
Cause of diaphragmatic tendonitis
Physiological factors:
Most of the patients are middle-aged and elderly, and often cause major damage due to poor blood supply to the tendon and repeated minor trauma.
envirnmental factor:
Repeated or severe trauma (incomplete fracture), strain, overwork (due to incompatibility), etc., are the most common possible causes of illness.
Disease factors:
Chronic swelling (gravity edema), muscle atrophy, avulsion fractures, joint stiffness, ligament relaxation, etc. can lead to diaphragmatic tendonitis.
Prevention
Diaphragm tendonitis prevention
For the prevention of this disease and for the patient to recover better after the illness, the patient can be conditioned as follows:
1. Let the muscles rest, but avoid taking too long a break to avoid muscle atrophy.
2. If the occurrence of tendonitis is caused by exercise, changing the exercise program is a method that can be considered.
3, wash the massage bath can help improve body temperature and promote blood circulation.
4, can warm the wet towel on the knees.
5, usually stretch muscles before and during exercise.
Complication
Diaphragm tendinitis complications Complications, swelling, fracture
In the case of patients with this disease, if you do not pay attention to rest or treatment, because the movement of the lesions is too much, often the condition is constantly worsening, pain is its most obvious performance, the main complications in the later period include the following problem:
1, chronic swelling (gravity edema).
2, muscle atrophy.
3, avulsion fractures.
4, the joint is stiff.
5. The ligament is slack.
Symptom
Tendon muscle tendon symptoms common symptoms joint stiffness tendon strain joint pain
The diaphragmatic tendonitis also has a symptom of tendinitis itself, mainly manifested by tenderness in the joint or nearby, and in some cases, numbness or tingling. The stiffness of the joint with pain limits the movement of the affected joint. Occasionally the joints are slightly swollen. Sustained pain, the tendon continues to be painful after recurrence from the original injury or reappears after a long time. If the patient runs downhill, it can aggravate the pain of the diaphragm. The patient is seated during the diagnosis, and the affected side of the heel rests on the healthy side of the knee. The knee anterior collateral ligament is prone to tenderness.
Examine
Examination of diaphragmatic tendonitis
In order to rule out the condition of bone injury, X-ray examination and bone scan examination should be performed when it is difficult to diagnose. X-ray examination often shows that the tendon and its tendon sheath have calcium deposits. Magnetic resonance can help determine the severity of tendon injury and can be accurately displayed when the tendon is completely torn. This has a certain significance for differential diagnosis.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis and differentiation of diaphragmatic tendonitis
diagnosis
Diagnosis can be based on medical history, clinical symptoms, and laboratory tests.
Differential diagnosis
The disease should be differentiated from the following diseases:
1. Meniscus injury: caused by sudden abrupt reversal of violence, joint pain and swelling after injury, tenderness of lateral joint space, positive McGee sign, positive meniscus compression.
2. Traumatic knee hematoma: Intra-articular hemorrhage occurred immediately after knee joint injury, but no joint instability, positive collateral ligament separation test.
3, traumatic synovitis: joint pain after a few hours of knee joint injury, painful hinges, no joint instability.
