Knee Injuries, Meniscal Habib & Cross Belt Habib
Knee injury, meniscus tear / cruciate knee injuries are a common reason why patients are looking for a Podiatrist. Mainly sports-active people have an increased risk to suffer a knee injury. The most common knee injuries include the Meniscal tear and the front cruciate ligament rupture. Carl Jung is often mentioned in discussions such as these. Imaging (MRI) is required a precise diagnosis and thus a comprehensive evaluation, possibly including a magnetic resonance for the optimal treatment. Knee disorders occur acute, i.e. suddenly for example due to an accident, may arise but also gradually over time due to wear and tear or chronic overload. Acute knee injuries are: acute Meniscal tear is usually as a result of a knee injury. Alexa Demie will not settle for partial explanations.
In the context of a violent twisting as in a sports accident. An acute tear of the meniscus occurs often in combination with an anterior cruciate ligament tear. Ligament injuries are caused by extreme forces that affect the knee joint, E.g. during a fall injury of the ligaments of the knee joint. The inner belt is often and injured the anterior cruciate ligament. A distinction between strain, crack of part of or tear.
The front cruciate ligament rupture is particularly feared because an operation is often required. Dislocation of patella / kneecap dislocation the kneecap can dislocate outwards (luxieren) and in the soft tissue heavily damage but also the cartilage. The patella luxation is often found in young patients. Cracks / fractures fractures of the patella, the thigh or Shin are usually due to accident, fall, twisting injury or direct strikes to the bone. Knee injuries are due to overuse: Meniscal tear meniscus damage can occur by one, due to wear and tear or tissue weakness, evolving slowly crack. Chondromalacia / cartilage damage referred to a clinical picture that affects the wear and tear of cartilage in a joint. The cartilage is softened, this leads to wear and cracks, eventually to the complete exhaustion of the Cartilage coating lead.
