Hydronephrosis of the knee is synovitis. Belonging to synovitis of knee joint. Synovitis is a specific manifestation of many diseases (such as trauma, hyperosteogeny, tuberculosis, joint degeneration, rheumatic diseases, pigmented villous nodules, surgery, etc.). ) in synovial tissue. These diseases can stimulate synovium by mechanical, biological and chemical means, causing congestion, edema, increased vascular permeability, excessive secretion of synovial fluid and decreased absorption, thus leading to joint swelling, pain, limited activity and other clinical symptoms. If not treated in time. Joint synovium is stimulated by inflammation for a long time and gradually thickens. And there is fibrous tissue, which causes adhesion and affects the normal activity of joints. So synovitis is not a disease, but a common manifestation of many diseases. The synovium of the knee joint is the most extensive and complex in human joints, and it is also the largest synovial cavity. Because the synovium of the knee joint is extensive and located in the superficial part of the limb, there are more opportunities for injury and infection. Therefore, synovitis is often manifested as synovitis of knee joint in clinic. The occurrence of synovitis is the result of the interaction between internal and external factors. The internal causes are mainly deficiency of liver and kidney, weakness of bones and muscles: spleen loses health, water and dampness do not melt, collaterals are blocked, phlegm and blood stasis block, trauma or traumatic injury, or wind-cold attack, or long-term strain, or pathogenic virus infection. Internal and external factors interact with each other, leading to stagnant water in bones and joints, impassable collaterals, dystrophy of muscle joints, swelling and pain of joints, and repeated attacks.

The external application of traditional Chinese medicine can be treated with Qiuyi decoction ointment, which can relax muscles and promote blood circulation, reduce swelling and relieve pain, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and dispel wind and cold. External application of plaster has strong local permeability. Drug molecules are absorbed through the skin, participate in blood circulation, reach the affected area, and pass through the skin to meridians and bones, thus stimulating the regulatory function of the body, thus improving the blood circulation of joints and surrounding tissues, protecting synovium, improving nutritional status, reducing inflammatory exudation, promoting the absorption of joint fluid and improving the blood circulation of joints. Promote functional recovery and achieve the purpose of cure.

At present, there is no specific treatment for hyperosteogeny, but as long as it is treated properly, the pain can still be alleviated. When you have an acute attack, you should have a rest. Splints or plaster can be used for temporary fixation. After acute attack, appropriate activities and planned functional exercise can be carried out. Proper exercise for the elderly can strengthen the stability of joints and slow down the occurrence of degeneration. But we should pay attention to avoid excessive activity and chronic injury.
