How to treat synovitis

Synovitis can be treated by drugs, surgery, physical and other methods. 1. Drugs: anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs can be chosen, which can be used to reduce or relieve pain, so as to make the tense or spasmodic muscles relax in order to reduce the muscle pull on the local lesion, which is conducive to the repair of the local injury lesion. Commonly used drugs are celecoxib, bisacodyl, ibuprofen, indomethacin and so on. Sodium vitrate injection can also be injected into the joint cavity, which can play a lubricating role, cover and protect the surface of articular cartilage, improve joint contracture and increase lubrication function. 2. Surgery: Depending on the patient’s specific condition and personal situation, surgery can be chosen to relieve symptoms, correct deformity, improve joint function and enhance quality of life. Surgical options include arthroscopic synovectomy, osteotomy, joint fusion and arthroplasty. 3. Physical: Physical therapy stimulates the skin and related tissues of the affected area, promotes blood circulation, absorbs the local inflammatory exudation, controls the inflammatory reaction, and achieves the effect of anti-inflammation and pain relief. Physical therapy mainly includes ice therapy, ultrashort wave, microwave therapy and so on. It is recommended to go to the hospital in time when symptoms such as joint pain occur, and follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment to avoid delaying the condition.
