Arthrosis of the hip joint

Hip joint arthrosis is a serious pathology that develops in the hip joint due to nutrition and, as a result, the destruction of cartilage and thighs.

With healthy cartilage tissue, the movement occurs easily and does not cause difficulties.If the cartilage is damaged by arthrosis, then the surface is no longer smooth, it has a zabina, a fossa that makes it difficult to flex/extension of normal joints.The thighs become like a rusty loop at the park gate, where the bloody opening sounds and feels tension when it moves.

The disease is dangerous because with the onset of treatment, healing is not only impossible, but the journey of the disease leads to deficiency and loss of joints.

Cause

What is it?Coksartrosis develops for many reasons, the main one is an inactive lifestyle.Often, athletes suffer from this disease due to a large burden that can injure the joints.Unfortunately, arthrosis is often inherited, congenital displacement in the inguinal region is possible.

Causes of causing the development of coksartrosis of the hip joint:

• Middle disease;
• fracture of the thighs;
• gets injuries or microtrauma in the childhood;
• Overweight, high load;
• drink alcohol;
• congenital disease;
• increased hormone levels (age -related changes);
• tissue inflammation;
• the destruction of joint tissue;
• take strong medication;
• stress situations;
• infectious and inflammatory processes;
• Pathological thigh disease in the inguinal region.

Special attention should be paid to the presence of injury (microtrauma).They have been recovering for a long time, leading to the development of the disease for many years.Often, the disease begins to develop in people over 40.Inflammation begins with one hip joint, but if you do not take timely treatment, the disease occurs for another area.

Symptoms of arthrosis of the hip joint

Coksartrosis most often develops in people over 40 years old.It grows gradually, and one's condition worsens over the years.If you do not treat damaged joints, then after some pathological changes can occur in other joints.

In world practice, it is acknowledged that hip joint arthrosis has three stages or stages of development.Each of them is characterized by their own symptoms.

1 degree arthrosis of the hip joint

At the stage of the disease, a person is in pain only with and after work -physical work, from walking or walking, while especially the joints itself is painful, very rare pain gives pain to the thighs or knees.

Also, at the same time, a person's lifestyle is normal, Chroma is not obeyed, the hip muscles are not atrophied.When diagnosing the image, bone growth is observed, located around the edge of the inner and external acetabulum, other pathological disorders in the neck and femur head are not complied with.

2 degrees arthrosis of the hip joint

With the arthrosis of the hip joints, the symptoms become important and the pain has gained a more constant and intense properties, and at rest and when moving, they give both the thighs and the thighs, at the load, the patient is already overflowing.There are also thigh restrictions, the amount of hip movement is reduced.

In the pictures, narrowing of the gap into half of the norm, bone growth is found outside and on the inner edge, the head of the hip begins to rise, deformation and switch, the edges become uneven.

3 degrees arthrosis of the hip joint

At the stage of this disease, pain is a continuous nature, both day and night, the patient becomes difficult to move independently, so sticks or sticks are used, the amount of joint movement is very limited, the lower leg muscles, the hips and buttocks are atrophy.

The legs were shortened and the man had to tilted the body as he walked towards the sore feet.From the center of gravity, the burden on the joint increase is damaged.In the picture -picture X -Ray, various bone growth is found, the head of the thigh grows and the joint is very narrow.

Diagnostics

This diagnosis is based on anamnesis data (identifying risk factors or causal disease), clinical data and additional examination methods.

To explain the diagnosis and carry out the differential diagnostics will help:

• X -ray hip joint;
• Ultrasound joints;
• MRI or CT.

As a rule, to create an accurate diagnosis, adequate clinical examination and radiological examination.In radiography, specific changes in the characteristics of each stage of the disease are found: narrowing of joint gaps, presence of osteophytes, displacement and femoral head deformation, subcondral cyst and periarticular osteosclerosis, osteoporotic changes in the bone.Depending on the presence of their pathological changes and severity, the level and level of the disease are established.

Treatment of hip joint arthrosis

In the first stage, hip joint arthrosis lends itself to conservative treatment.The main task is to relieve pain, which prevents the patient from moving.

In the process of coxarthrosis therapy ,:

• recovery of nutrition and blood circulation in the muscles and cartilage;
• Physical activity in damaged joints decreases;
• damaged cartilage recovery;
• activation of hidden reserves of the human body, which contributes to the regeneration of tissue at the microcellular level;
• increased joint gaps;
• Restores joint mobility.

During drug treatment, this category of patients, the following medications are prescribed:

1. Not anti -steroid anti -inflammation.They will help eliminate pain, eliminate edema and inflammation, but their uncontrolled use will contribute to the natural suppression of the cartilage to be restored.Doctors do not recommend using more than one non -semi -non -non -drug drug;
2. Relaxing muscles.Remove muscle cramps, increase blood supply to the joints, but its use should be done under the supervision of a doctor due to side effects;
3. Expand the ship.They can relax the muscles and increase the space between the muscles.Has a minimum of contraindications, but its effectiveness is individual indicators;
4. Steroid type.Helps with similar diseases such as the presence of thigh inflammation, but has many side effects;
5. Restores cartilage.Chondroprotectors are the most useful for healing to change arthrosis.They feed the cartilage with the desired elements and stop the development of the disease;
6. Local use.The main positive effect lies in the process of rubbing the product into the skin, which relieves muscle cramps and helps improve blood circulation.

During conservative treatment, patients should adhere to the diet, specially designed for patients with hip joint arthrosis.Therapeutic therapy courses include therapeutic massage, which is shown to patients with 1 and 2 stages of arthrosis.

Endoprosthetics

The third stage of the disease only provides treatment for surgery.Patients are recommended to replace joints, or endoprostetics.The surgeon cuts the head of the thighs, inserting a metal pin into the cut, where it ties the artificial head.

The prosthesis itself is single -pepole (replacing only the head) and the amount (replacing both components).The next day after surgery, several elements of exercise therapy were performed in a bed position, the patient may stand, but so far without the support of the feet, after a few days on the stick.After 2-3 months, the stick is not required, the full load on the feet will be allowed.

Patients who have undergone endoprostetics are recommended for recovery, consisting of physiotherapy training, massage courses, and physiotherapy.In most cases, the function of the limbs is restored.The life of the prosthesis service is from 10 to 20 years, so it is replaced by a new one.

Gymnastics with hip joint arthrosis

Training for the struggle and prevention of coksartrosis must be carefully conducted.Movement for exercise therapy should be smooth, do not cause pain.LFK for the treatment of the disease should be intended primarily to strengthen the muscles itself and not load the joints.A good way to prevent swimming coksartrosis, especially in salted water.

• Position begins: lying on the floor, stretching your arms and legs throughout the body.Slowly, lift your foot straight on the knee joint 15 cm from the floor and last for about half a minute.After that, lower your feet and repeat the exercise with the other feet;
• Position begins: lying on the stomach, legs and arms throughout the body.Increase the leg straight 15 cm up, make, and then spread it to the side.Everything needs to be done slowly.

Patients should keep in mind that some exercises with hip joint arthrosis from training therapy can be difficult for them because of their physical training.Therefore, they are a relatively effective method for the prevention of various diseases, so it is included in the training therapy system with arthrosis and other diseases.

The recovery of the people

In folk medicine, there are many methods that have successfully treated coxarthrosis:

1. Tinctures and decoctions used in (there are many recipes for the preparation of folk medicine healing, including garlic, lemon, mummy, and various parts of the plant, and honey, and so on);
2. Ointment based on various natural components (ointment made of celandine, eucalyptus oil, aloe vera and other plants);
3. Compresses and bathtubs (applying cabbage sheets, bathing with Jerusalem artichoke and so on).

Applying all folk medicine, keep in mind that a 100 percent recovery guarantee does not exist.

Prevention

Steps -Preventive measures are very important, especially if you have a history of hip joint displacement, bone fractures, strong bruises or purulent processes in this area.

1. Weight control (reducing the use of flour products, table salts, sweetness, tea and strong coffee in the diet).With overweight, the risk of arthrosis increases the hip joint.
2. Exceptions to weight transplantation, jumping (especially from height).Try not to be on your feet for a long time.
3. In the event of a disease related to metabolism (diabetes, atherosclerosis), they must be compensated.
4. Physical dosage exercises aimed at strengthening the hip and back muscles (cycling or biking, swimming, therapeutic gymnastics).

Compliance with preventive measures, early detection of coxarthrosis and adequate treatment is key to positive prognosis in the disease.
