What is synovitis

summary

Knee joint is the most synovial joint in the whole body, so synovitis is more common in knee joint. When the knee joint is directly hit by violence, long-term weight-bearing will lead to the emergence of chronic synovitis, so what is synovitis? Now let me share my experience with you.

What is synovitis

First, indirect knee sprain, injury during operation, strenuous physical activity or super intensity training, incorrect habitual movements, joint degeneration, knee joint reflexes, and even improper wearing of shoes can cause trauma, synovial injury, synovial congestion, swelling, synovial cell activity, and produce a large amount of fluid, including plasma, leukocytes, phagocytes, etc.

Second: due to the increased exudation after injury, the accumulation of acidic products in the joint, the synovial fluid becomes acidic, which promotes the cellulose precipitation. If the effusion is not removed in time, the synovial membrane of the joint will have a long-term inflammatory stimulation reaction, which will gradually thicken the synovial membrane, and there is fibrous organization, causing adhesion and affecting the normal activities of the joint.

Third: when the joint is affected by external and internal factors, the synovium reacts, causing congestion or edema, and exudates fluid, showing swelling, pain and dysfunction of the joint. It can also be said that if there is effusion in the joint cavity, there will be synovitis.
