What is the best way to treat knee pain

The knee position is prone to problems in middle-aged and elderly people. There are many reasons for knee pain, and it is necessary to find out the specific cause in order to better treat it. Common causes of knee pain include rheumatoid arthritis, bone hyperplasia, effusion, etc.

Treatments for knee pain

1. Conservative treatment: including medication, massage, heat therapy, etc. Most of the drugs are painkillers, which can effectively relieve pain, but these drugs have great side effects on the gastrointestinal tract. Methods such as massage can only relieve pain.

2. Surgical treatment: If arthritis recurs and the joints have become deformed, surgical treatment must be taken. But if it hasn't reached that stage, don't choose surgical treatment. Because surgical treatment is traumatic and has many complications, it is not the best choice for patients.

3. Minimally invasive therapy: can quickly reduce and relieve pain symptoms, delay joint destruction and restore joint mobility, prevent cartilage and bone destruction, and prevent deformity and disability. Compared with the first two methods, this method is more effective and can easily relieve the pain.
