For example, if a patient has a popping sound when straightening the knee, but the patient does not have pain or limited knee movement, this is a normal physiological popping sound and no special treatment is needed. The patient should be instructed to reduce weight-bearing activities and pay attention to local warmth. If the patient has pain in the knee or a reduced range of motion in the knee joint after the knee is straightened, this indicates that the meniscus, synovium, fat pad and other tissues in the knee joint have been damaged and symptomatic treatment should be given. The patient needs to rest in bed, and the knee joint can be treated with hot compresses, such as Chinese herbal fumigation or with low and medium frequency electrotherapy, physiotherapy apparatus baking electricity, bioelectric therapy, etc. Sodium vitreous acid can also be injected into the knee joint, which can nourish the cartilage, nourish the synovial membrane and lubricate the joint. In addition, the patient can be instructed to take oral chondroitin hydrochloride, which can be used to make the cartilage resistant to wear and tear, or to take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, which can relieve the clinical phenomenon.
