Knee Pain

膝蓋痛

Knee pain as a common complaint among adults

Knee joint is the biggest joint of our body and it is a major weight-bearing joint. Because of high mobility level and heavy loading, knee joint is one of the most vulnerable joints to degenerations. Pressure at knee joint when walking stairs is 3 times greater than during level ground walking. Thus, these kinds of activities would induce a great wastage to the knee cartilage.

Swelling and stiff knees

Knee pain can come develop slowly, such as in cases of overuse injuries or underlying conditions such as arthritis, or suddenly from injury. Symptoms of knee injury can include pain, swelling and/or stiffness. Treatment will vary depending on the cause of your knee pain. In some cases, knee pain is the result of an issue with the foot, ankle or hip.

膝蓋痛影響走路、站立、甚至睡眠

患者不能長時間站立或行走,上落樓梯時亦需要額外氣力,有些患者膝頭痛的情況更會影響他們的睡眠質素,令生活十分困擾。

預防膝蓋痛以保養護關節為最重要

  • 日常生活中提取重物,均會增加膝蓋部位的負荷導致勞損。建議應盡量減少提取重的物品上落樓梯或斜路,應該盡可能使用電梯或扶手電梯。
     

  • 過重的體重將增加膝關節的負載,膝關節更早退化,引起膝蓋痛。應保持適當的體重。

  • 平日亦應保持正確的站立和走路姿勢,以減少勞損。

  • 穿合適的鞋子。穿高跟鞋會令膝關節的負荷加重,長期穿著亦會增加膝關節勞損的機會,但如果有些女士因工作需要不能減少穿著高跟鞋的時間,建議不要選擇過高的鞋跟,最好鞋跟為2吋以下,或可以訂造適合女士鞋形的矯形鞋墊,令膝關節的受壓情況更平均。

  • 平時應多做可強代膝關節的運動以及定時伸展雙腳,盡量減輕膝關節的負荷。

膝蓋痛治療一般是多次性療程

應儘早處理退化性膝關節炎,找個好的治療師作詳細檢查。治療膝蓋痛一般不是1次性,是多次性療程。治療師會採用適合的專業手法,謀求在巧妙、輕鬆及無痛的情況下,快速高效舒緩膝蓋引起的相關痛楚,併且幫助放鬆患者肌肉,刺激身體血液的循環,針對性緩和局部神經壓迫的徵狀。除此之外,要達至為軟骨修復,降低損壞,服用葡萄糖胺及軟骨素亦是不錯的選擇。

膝蓋痛怎麼舒緩

採用 RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression, and Elevation)方法。休息、冰敷、加壓和抬高對輕微受傷或關節炎發作引起的膝蓋疼痛有好處。從日常活動中讓你的膝蓋休息一下,以減少膝蓋的重複性勞損。冰敷以減輕腫脹,戴上壓縮繃帶,並保持膝蓋抬高。日常鍛煉 (比如太極、瑜珈、柔軟體操) 可以幫助您保持肌肉強壯並保持活動能力。鍛煉是治療骨關節炎和其他原於膝關節疼痛的有效方法。
