Let me tell you another example of the sequelae of surgery. This patient said this, he said that my joint was painful before the operation, and I can use force, although it hurts, I can use force, and my function is not affected. I had an MRI and it showed a third-degree tear.
Because this patient is a renovation worker, the work of installing doors and windows is not yet 40 years old, and it will definitely be inconvenient to work after the pain. The doctor said that you will be fine if you have an arthroscopy, but you will not be able to do it again. He's going to have two things to do.
The first feeling is that you can't use your strength, that is, you can't use your strength.
Second, I felt that my legs were stiff, as if I wasn't my own legs. What does this mean? It's your nerves that innervate your leg, and you can't control it.
We often have friends who will say that they feel as if this hand is not their own, and they don't listen to the command when they want to do something. We know that when you have a cerebral infarction or some precursors of a stroke, there will be a word that does not make sense, and you want to say this thing, but it turns out that it is not the same thing. And then what do you want to do with this hand? Some movements are found to be unsuccessful, which may be a precursor to a stroke.
Why are nerves affected? We feel that this leg is not our own leg, what does this mean? It's the nerves that are affected. Why are nerves affected? There are two reasons for this.
The first is that the nerve is damaged to a certain extent during the operation. We know that this is also the case when you get an injection, especially when you get a carpal tunnel syndrome carpal tunnel injection, because this tube is relatively small, when you have an injection that damages the myelin sheath of the nerve, there will be hand numbness, or even can not be relieved. Because these injuries are often irreversible.
The second is what I call the sequelae of surgery. Because everyone thinks about the minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery anyway, it is also minimally invasive, and the doctor's technique should be different, so that these adhesions will stimulate the nerves, and the nerves will also be adhesed, and then the nerves will also be stimulated, and there is no good ** after the operation, so you will feel that this leg is not your own.
This is generated, why is the leg not its own?
Second, I feel that my legs are stiff and I can't make up my strength. Why is it stiff? Why can't it be done? Everyone can't think about it, and some of the reasons are because it is boring and has no strength. This is one of the main points I said, many friends think that the surgery is good as soon as it is done, and I repeat it many times to everyone, that is, the operation is just the beginning.
Because before you got sick, some of the diseases were relatively long, the muscles were already atrophied, the legs were not strong, and there was no good ** after the operation, we know that after the operation, there are strength, flexibility, function, and so on.
If you don't have a system, some friends even recuperate at home, recuperate for two months, three months, a year, and some have been afraid to go down on crutches, then you think about whether your strength is muscle atrophy, no strength, how do you make strength? That's why I don't feel like it's working.
In addition, his nerve just said that after his nerve is damaged, adhesion will also cause you to lose your strength, so this patient will have his stiffness and his strength will not be used. So how should this problem be solved? In fact, there are still two points to solve this problem, one is that you don't need strength for exercise, including stiffness, and the circulation of qi and blood is not good? StiffnessFrom the perspective of Western medicine, do muscles have adhesions? Are the nerves sticking? The angle of exercising must be from the perspective of invigorating blood and reducing inflammation, or from the perspective of activating the meridians and meridians in traditional Chinese medicine.
How does that work? In TCM external treatment, there is massage, and what I recommend to you is patting, especially when there are adhesions, scars, and tissue stiffness, this method is better, that is, patting along the perimeter of your knee joint. The power of this slap should not be used too much, so that it produces a feeling of vibration, two or three times a day.
Note that this must be done with strength, and it must be with strength. What does it mean to generate infiltration? We know that there will definitely be pain when you slap, and it's okay to have pain, but it's comfortable after slapping, and that's penetrating inward. If you know that when you fight and beat someone, you slap your body, it hurts hotly, and it hurts when you go home, it hurts for three days, it hurts for a week, what is this called? This is called the pain of the flesh and skin. But if you want to slap as a kind of **, it will vibrate, it hurts when you slap, and it doesn't shake after slapping, why does it penetrate inward? So there's a certain amount of technology to it.
I saw some friends on the Internet say how to slap, where slapping, patting is not so simple, including slapping is actually one of the massage techniques, and massage, kneading, rubbing the same principle is the same, the same rolling method should also penetrate in.
We know that joint pain, the pain is often the place where the muscles, fascia and bones are connected, not the epidermis, what will happen to the flesh on the epidermis? It does not cause joint pain, so whether it is manual massage or patting, it must be permeable, which is one of the techniques. Often acupuncture, because the needle is thinner, often does not play a better role than patting.
In addition, if the blood circulation is not good and stiff, including some numbness and swelling, it is still necessary to carry out some external treatment methods of traditional Chinese medicine. In addition, coupled with anti-exercise, I still tell you that the quadriceps muscles are universal, but what other methods to use, you must formulate the amount and function according to the situation.
I see that many friends leave messages like this, and after leaving a message, they are leaving their own lessons, and they will have less surgery in the future, and be cautious, which is not enough. From the patient's point of view, don't lose confidence, but also actively work hard, don't be discouraged, it will develop in a good direction. How good it is, to be honest, I can't judge, depending on how well you insist, don't give up on yourself.
There will be all kinds of unhappiness in life, including getting worse and worse after surgery, but what should I do? This is life, if you work hard in the face of life with a positive attitude, this is a test for life in itself, it may be one for you, and it is also an extraction. After this hurdle, there may not be a big blow to you when something happens.
