The muscle strain, osteoarthritis, lumbar disc herniation, popliteal cyst and other reasons are considered for the pain in the back of the knee fossa, and medication, physical therapy or surgery should be taken for the cause of the pain.
1. Muscle strain: pay attention to rest, avoid strenuous exercise, external diclofenac diethylamide cream, oral non-steroidal painkillers such as nimesulide dispersible tablets.
2. Osteoarthritis: apply nutritional cartilage drugs such as joint injection of sodium vitrate or oral glucosamine sulfate, take ultrasound physiotherapy, and perform artificial knee joint replacement surgery if conservative treatment is ineffective.
3. Lumbar disc herniation: bed rest, acupuncture, lumbar spine traction, and intermediate-frequency pulse electro-physiotherapy. Ineffective conservative treatment, intervertebral foramenoscopy surgery to remove the herniated disc.
4. Popliteal cyst: If there is a cystic swelling in the popliteal fossa that causes pain, surgery can be taken to remove the popliteal cyst.
The back of the knee tendon pain need to go to the hospital for further examination, under the guidance of the doctor to determine the cause of the disease and targeted treatment.
