Patient: Ms. Hah, 13 years old
Date: 03-07-2022, First visit
Main Problem: Knee sprain for 5 days, hard to squatting
I learned from the Ms. Xia thatthe cause this time was because she accidentally sprained her knee when she was running around and playing. At that time, it was painful to walk, squat also painful, and occasionally wake up in pain when sleeping. After 5 days of observation at home, the symptoms did not improve, so came for treatment.
【Diagnosis】
The pain in the knee joint of the Ms.Xiamakes it difficult to bend, so it causes pain when squatting. Her pain was a constant pain, feel like pulling pain.
When I checked the knee joint for Ms.Xia, I found tenderness on the inside of the knee joint and pressure pain on the back of the knee joint, and the muscles of the thigh and calf were too tight.
After a preliminary examination and diagnosis, Ms.Xia was invited to the treatment room, lying on the treatment bed for treatment.
【Treatment】
During the treatment, the muscles of the thighs and calves are dredged by tuina to relax the tense muscles, and then combined with the lighting, the blood circulation of the knee joints and the repair of the muscles are promoted.
Then adjust the range of motion of the knee joint through manipulation and exercise to help restore the range of motion of the knee joint.
After the treatment, let Ms.Xia get up of bed and walk,how does it feel to.
After getting up of bed, Ms. Xia felt less pain when walking, and it was more natural.
“I will prescribe some traditional Chinese medicine for you to help relax your muscles and blood circulation, strengthen your muscles and bones, and give you an external application of ointment to help relieve part swelling and blood stasis.“
Before Ms. Xia left, I told her again: “Can’t run around and squat so much in the next few days, and remember to reduce the habit of drinking cold drinks, and remember to take medicine and apply medicine on time, and after applying it. After the medicine, the knee pain will be relieved a lot.”
Revisit: 06-07- 2022
Three days later, Ms. Xia came back with her mother for a follow-up consultation.
Ms.Xia said that she was much better, and there was basically no problem with walking and squatting.
After examination, it was found that the back and inner side of the knee joint was still a little sore.
The fascia near the knee joint was loosened by Tuina therapy again. After the treatment, Ms. Xia felt that her soreness was relieved a lot.
Since there is still a slight soreness in the knee joint, I will prescribe some Chinese medicine and ointment to Ms.Xia. “After taking the medicine and topical medicine, if there is no discomfort, you don’t have to come here.”
【How to deal with knee sprain? 】
1.If you have just been injured, try to walk as little as possible and take more rest. If there is swelling and pain in the part area, it is not recommended to shove the part area to avoid secondary injury.
2. If after a sprain, when we touch the sprained area and feel hot, swollen and painful, you can use an ice pack for 10-15 minutes to slow down inflammation and relieve pain.
3. After injury, it is also recommended to use knee guard to wrap the injured part and fix the sprained part to avoid secondary injury.
4. If the pain persists the next day after the sprained knee and does not get relief, please consult a physician who can handle muscle injuries, or an experienced physician for examination and treatment, so as not to delay the treatment time.
