Hip or coxarthrosis arthritis is a chronic form of arthritis that has led to the destruction of the cartilage tissue of the joint, exposure of bone joints and deformation of the joint.This disease is classified as a very serious disease, as amputation or prosthetics can be indications for treatment.
Causes of the disease
The main factors that lead to the disease are:
- serious damage and damage.which affected the hip;
- Excess weight or a lifestyle that causes very serious stress in the hip joint.
- Necrosis of the joint tissue, which can be caused by infection, alcohol or drug abuse.
- Postpartum injuries and congenital bone tissue pathological aberrations.
- Inflammatory processes in coupling.
- Changes in bone and common structure caused by age.
- Osteoporosis is a pathology associated with the destruction of bone tissue.
Degrees and signs of hip joint arthrosis
In its anamnesis (medical history), arthritis occurs in three consecutive stages.
First degree coxarthrosis
The first degree is filled with the fact that articular or synovial fluid loses its properties as a type of lubricant that fills the joint capsule.The cartilage tissue gradually tires and begins to be replaced with bone formations called osteophytes.
The first degree is treated in 100 percent of cases, but due to unclear symptoms, the patient rarely comes to the hospital with a complaint.If, when walking or erecting heavy objects, the pain appears in the hip, which radiates to the groin, then you should immediately go to the doctor.
Second rank
At this stage, damage to the joint tissue is more active.The number of bone growth increases, the cartilaginous layer becomes significantly thinner.X-ray detects inflammation of the periosteal part.Initial symptoms intensify: pain syndrome increases, the peak of pain occurs at night or dawn, walking and walking are damaged.Gradual deformation of the joint begins.
Rank of 3rd
In the third stage, the cartilage tissue completely disappears.The movement of the foot is completely limited, and even severe anesthesia does not relieve pain.The story for treatment is foot amputation in the hip joint or replacement of the prosthesis.
Troubleshooting
The initial stage of treatment for coxarthrosis is timely diagnosis and anamnesis collection (medical history).If the diagnosis is made at an early stage, the disease will be cured or significantly delayed.
The most important way to detect the disease is X -ray. The patient's examination, external signs and tests are secondary precautions that complement the overall appearance of medical history.
Therapeutic treatment
It should be noted that doctors provide a direct response on how to treat the arthrosis of the hip joint.The first and second stairs are treatable, the third degree is treated by surgery.
The following remedies are used as outpatient treatment:
- Anesthetic agents;
- drugs that fight inflammation;
- "Dimexide" compresses and drugs - a cartilage restoration, similar injections are also used;
- Physiotherapy, gymnastics, exercise therapy, diet.
All tools are used entirely, otherwise treatment will not produce results.
Massage helps relieve severe muscle spasms and dystrophy, as massage manipulations restore lymph exchange and activate blood supply.Massage is used in the first stage after the main symptoms are relieved: pain, tumors, inflammatory processes within the joint.
A massage -like drug can be a course of receiving muscle relaxants - drugs that can reduce and relax muscle tension.
For drug treatment, sedative sedatives, gel and ointments that do not contain steroid derivatives are prescribed.The use of steroids can cause bumps and lead to severe bone growth in damaged tissue as steroids begin to replace substances missing in the synovit.
The right food and diet
A balanced diet helps the body get a complex of nutrients and microelements that are needed for "building" common tissue.The main task in using the diet is to provide the body protein for the structure of muscle tissue and cartilage;Calcium is also needed for the structure of bones and synovial fluid;The diet helps the patient get rid of salt deposits in the joints and reduce weight, the load from which it has a detrimental effect on the joints and bone joints.
Recommendations and indications:
- It is necessary to consume a balanced and proportional amount of protein (bird, beef, fish).Salted meat and vegetables are forbidden;
- Fresh dairy products, cottage cheese;
- Sweets and starch foods should be excluded from the diet;
- The priority is the water -cooked cereal porridge;
- You should start eating different vegetables five times a day;
- Bad habits are completely eliminated;
- To normalize metabolism, you need to eat a little, but more often.
The diet will significantly reduce the load on the joints, as the body will lose excess weight, and will also create prerequisites for tissue restoration.
Coxarthrosis is a very serious disease that is packed with pain and loss of a toe, but can be treated very effectively.You just need to consult a doctor in a timely manner, undergo periodic medical examinations and be able to "hear" your body.A comprehensive method of using therapy will bring results, and the body will heal.
