Fascial adhesions are adhesions between muscle tendons and fascia due to trauma or prolonged joint braking after surgery. Most patients do not have serious adhesions and a small number of patients have relatively serious adhesions.
Most of the patients with fascial adhesion are not serious, patients can improve the symptoms through rehabilitation training, including passive stretching of tendons, tendon resistance training therapy, etc. Secondly, hot compresses, massage, deep microwave and other physical therapy can also effectively loosen and relieve the area of fascial adhesion, which can significantly relieve the clinical symptoms.
A small number of patients are relatively serious and may require surgical treatment. For example, patients with long time of adhesion, patients with no improvement after conservative treatment, and patients with dysfunction. In this group of patients, the fascia cannot be loosened by conventional means, and fasciectomy is needed to loosen the fascia.
If the symptoms of fascial adhesion are severe, or if the symptoms do not improve, the patient should go to the hospital for treatment.
