20 -year -old people 50 -year -old knee, the guy's old injury has not healed and adds new injuries

Wuhan Evening News July 27th. The 20 -year -old guy's knee loss is like middle -aged and elderly people. Experts said that the patient's injury many years ago was not treated in time, and the long -term "accumulation of hard work" eventually caused the injury to worsen.

Xiao Wang is a sports enthusiast and likes to sweat on the basketball court every day. Last week, he accidentally sprained his right knee when he jumped off the ground. After a few days of rest, the swelling and pain had not disappeared.

On July 24, Xiao Wang came to the Department of Sports Medicine of the Fourth Hospital of Wuhan. The results of the examination made the doctor Li Yanan a surprise: the patient not only torn the front cross ligament, but also to tear the inner and outer half -moon plate, as well as traumatic arthritis. The knee joint was severely worn and bone spurs. "A 20 -year -old, knee in his 50s." Li Yanan said that if it was just a sprains, it would be difficult to cause such serious situations. What is going on?

After the doctor's question, Xiao Wang recalled that he had sprained three years ago because of playing for the same part. The results of the nuclear magnetic resonance inspection at the time showed that "the front cross ligament was torn in front of the knee joint", but he felt that he was young and healthy, and the pain seemed to be relieved. He did not receive the suggestion of surgical treatment and went home to recuperate. Later, when he jumped and ran, he always felt that his knees were not "strong", but he didn't care too much.

Fortunately, Xiao Wang's half -moon board damage is not the heaviest, and there is still the possibility of suture treatment. At the doctor's advice, Xiao Wang finally underwent surgical treatment. Through arthroscopy minimally invasive technology, the doctor rebuilt the front ligament for him to repair the damaged half -moon board, and remove the influential osteotomy.

Li Yanan said that front cross ligaments are a ligament that maintains knee stability very important. When the starting ground and the calf flexion and rotation, the front cross ligament is tightened, and once it exceeds the elastic limit, it will cause tear. After the front cross ligament is damaged, wearing branches can be recuperated and at the same time strengthen the training of leg muscle strength, which can restore the stability of the knee joint to a certain extent. If severe tears occur, it is recommended to perform surgery.

Experts remind that after the front cross ligament is torn, usually about a month of swelling and pain, and patients often think that the surgery is not large, but if the ligament cannot heal by itself, the stability of the knee joint will decrease, and it will be easy to motion during exercise. Shake and soft. With the accumulation of daily activities, it will not only exacerbate ligament damage, but other structures in the knee joints such as semi -moon plates and joint cartilage will face the possibility of injury.
