Symptoms after patellar surgery

summary

In general, there are sequelae after the operation of patellar fracture. As long as the patella is fractured again, the probability of this situation is relatively small, generally about 1% - 5%, because in a relatively short time after bone healing, the stability of the knee joint controlled by quadriceps femoris tendon is not completely restored, And also because the patella internal fixation is not strong enough at this time, the knee joint movement time is insufficient, so when the patient exercises or walks, in the case of insufficient protection, what are the symptoms after patellar surgery? Let's talk about it

Symptoms after patellar surgery

The patient's knee will be more prone to sudden softening, which will cause the quadriceps muscle to contract violently, which will cause refracture. If the bone mass separation is large after the fracture, and the parapatellar aponeurosis tissue tears, it is necessary to open reduction and internal fixation again at this time.

There is also the possibility of patellar fracture delayed healing or the place where the fracture is not easy to heal. However, the probability of patellar fracture nonunion is relatively low, and the probability of patellar fracture nonunion is about 2.4% ～ 4.8%.

Now for the treatment of patellar fracture nonunion, for asymptomatic or mild symptoms using non-surgical treatment, although the fracture nonunion, but the function of the affected knee is OK, for patients with obvious symptoms using surgical treatment, according to the specific situation to do open reduction, tension band wire fixation, partial patellar resection, total patellar resection, postoperative function of most patients improved significantly.

matters needing attention

Pay attention to the patient's diet. In the early stage, due to congestion and swelling of the patient's parts, obstruction of meridians and Qi blood block, we should pay attention to promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, promoting Qi dissipation, mainly light, and eat more fruits and vegetables, eggs, bean products or fish soup. In the middle stage, it is mainly to relieve pain, remove blood stasis and promote regeneration, connect bones and tendons, pay attention to supplement appropriate nutrition to meet the growth of callus, drink more bone soup, eat more Tianqi stewed chicken callus, grow animal liver, and supplement vitamin AD and protein. In the later stage, the taboo on diet has been lifted. You can drink more pig bone soup, sheep bone soup, etc., and those who drink can drink some tiger bone papaya wine, etc.
