NSAIDs are generally referred to as “anti-inflammatory drugs”, and the most common (and simple) NSAIDs for synovitis include drugs such as celecoxib and ibuprofen.
Synovitis is caused by irritation of the synovial membrane due to cold or chronic strain on the knee, resulting in inflammation, swelling and hyperplasia of the synovial membrane, dysfunction of fluid secretion, and increase in fluid production to form an effusion.
The drug treatment of synovitis is based on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which can control inflammation and relieve pain symptoms, and are mainly used to treat aseptic inflammation of the organism, with commonly used drugs such as celecoxib, etoricoxib, ibuprofen, and so on.
For the presence of purulent synovitis, antibiotic treatment, such as penicillin, cefixime and so on.
Localized physiotherapy, acupuncture and acupressure can also be used to improve local circulation. Avoid excessive exercise and exposure to wind and cold, etc. Joints should be well protected to prevent further aggravation of symptoms.
Synovitis patients are recommended to standardize treatment under the guidance of a doctor, avoid blind self-medication.
