Knee osteoarthritis treatment.
Knee Osteoarthritis Treatment: Relief for Your Movement... and Return to Activity
Knee osteoarthritis, or osteoarthritis, is one of the most common joint diseases, especially with aging or chronic joint stress. This condition occurs due to the wear and tear of the cartilage covering the ends of the bones in the knee joint, leading to bone-on-bone friction, causing pain, stiffness, and difficulty moving.
In this guide, we present the latest knee osteoarthritis treatment methods through modern medical techniques suited for every stage, restoring the comfort and flexibility you are looking for.
Knee Osteoarthritis Symptoms
Pain during movement or after prolonged rest
Stiffness in the knee joint, especially in the morning
Crunching or friction sound inside the joint
Light swelling or inflammation around the area
Difficulty fully bending or straightening the knee
Feeling of instability when standing or walking
Causes of Knee Osteoarthritis
Aging: Cartilage starts to wear out over time.
Excess weight: Places additional pressure on the knee joint.
Genetics: A family history of similar cases.
Previous injuries or past surgeries.
Lifestyle: Sitting or standing for long periods without movement.
Engaging in violent or improper sports.
Types of Knee Osteoarthritis Treatment
1. Conservative Treatment (Non-Surgical)
Medications: Pain relievers and anti-inflammatory drugs like "Diclofenac" or "Ibuprofen".
Physical Therapy: Strengthening thigh and calf muscles to reduce the load on the knee, flexibility exercises, and balance improvement, electrical therapy sessions or ultrasound waves.
Joint Injections: Cortisone injections for quick inflammation relief, hyaluronic acid injections to improve joint movement, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections for tissue regeneration and wear treatment.
Knee Braces or Supports: To stabilize the joint and reduce friction during movement.
Lifestyle Adjustments: Weight loss, using crutches or walking aids, avoiding climbing stairs or sitting on the floor.
2. Surgical Treatment (In Advanced Cases)
Arthroscopic joint cleaning: Removing bone spurs or damaged tissue.
Correcting leg alignment: To redistribute pressure on the joint.
Partial or total joint replacement: For severe osteoarthritis that does not respond to other treatments.
