Knee effusion is characterized by swelling, pain, and impaired mobility of the knee joint, as well as redness, swelling, and fever when there is inflammation of the joint.
Knee effusion is also known as knee joint effusion. When knee joint effusion is mild, there may not be any symptoms, but when there is more effusion, there will be swelling and pain in the knee joint, as well as reduced mobility of the joint, or even the joint can’t be moved at all, and the range of motion is limited. If there is obvious infection and inflammation in the joint, there will also be localized redness, swelling and fever.
Patients with knee joint effusion should rest appropriately, reduce the movement of the joint, use ice or heat to relieve the pain, and for a large amount of effusion, puncture and fluid extraction can also be performed for treatment. Daily to prevent excessive load on the joint, take the correct way of exercise.
