Effect of traditional joint adhesion lysis combined with herbal fumigation on exercise-induced knee osteoarthritis
Objective To study the effect of traditional joint adhesion lysis combined with herbal fumigation on exercise-in-duced knee osteoarthritis(KOA).Method Sixty patients with exercise-induced KOA were randomized 1:1 into the control group and the treatment group.All patients received Western medicine treatment,patients in the treatment group additionally re-ceived traditional joint adhesion lysis combined with herbal fumigation.A 4-week of treatment was performed,aiming to com-pare the Lysholm score,isokinetic peak torque of knee flexors/extensor(60 deg/s and 180 deg/s),visual analogue scale(VAS)for pain,and the 36 item Short-form Health Survey(SF-36)scores before and after treatment,and the curative effect of the two groups was assessed.Result The total effective rate of the treatment group was better than that of the control group(86.67%[26/30]vs 66.67%[20/30],P<0.05).Patients in the both groups presented significantly increased Lysholm score(P<0.05),improved isokinetic peak torque of knee flexors/extensor(P<0.05)and elevated SF-36 scores(P<0.05),and significantly decreased VAS scores(P<0.05)than those before treatment,and the improvements were more pro-nounced in the treatment group(P<0.05).Conclusion The effect of joint adhesion lysis combined with herbal fumigation on exercise-induced KOA is ideal and worthy of clinical promotion.
