How to treat pain on the outside of the knee

The knee is a joint that we use many times every day. It does not get injured often, but if it is injured, it will have a lot of impact on our normal life, especially for people who exercise regularly. Many people have been injured in this part of the body. So how should we treat pain on the outside of the knee? Let's learn about it together, so that we can provide timely treatment when this happens.

1. Take aspirin to reduce pain and inflammation

2. If the X-ray shows a meniscus tear, surgical treatment is required, namely arthroscopic surgery, which includes inserting a stainless steel tube and using an aspirator to suck out the torn cartilage. This popular new surgical procedure allows a person to regain their ability to move within a week of surgery.

3. In addition to physical therapy, you can also use Chinese medicine and massage

4. Recovery measures: Sit flat on the bed with your legs straight. While keeping your legs straight, lift them up with force. Repeat 100 times. Attention! You cannot do it with both legs at the same time, you have to do it separately. Reasons and effects of this method: When the legs are straightened, the distance between the thigh bone and the calf bone is the largest, and a certain amount of space can be created between the soft tissues. Straighten your legs and lift them up, which is actually using the muscles to push lubricating fluid into the gaps between the soft tissues of the knee, replenishing nutrition to the soft tissues. Doing this for a long time can enhance the wear resistance of the soft tissues.

If the pain is very severe, you must go to the hospital for examination and X-ray in time. The knee joint is a very critical part.
