Abstract
|
|
|
It is general knowledge that knee joint pain can be attributed to trauma and degenerative change around the knee joint. However most patients who have suffered from pain or limited range of motion of the knee joint show no definite pathology on
X-ray or
laboratory examination.
We examined 242 patients with knee joint pain and found compression or entrapnent of the articular nerve fiber by the tissue around the knee joint resulted in pain in almost all cases.
Conclusion: by relieving the compression of the articular nerve fiber with just physical therapy and LASER stimulation on the identified trigger points, in conjunction with NSAIDs, muscle relaxants, were found to be very effective in the
treatment
of
knee joint pain.
