Patient's question:
A child around 5 years old has recently been experiencing frequent complaints of leg pain, without knowing why. Could you please list the medications available for treating bursitis?Doctor's answer:
Synovitis is a common disease that causes knee joint pain, primarily caused by factors such as overuse, cold exposure, and trauma, leading to aseptic inflammation of the joint synovium. The increased exudation of synovitis results in joint effusion, causing joint pain and swelling. Currently, the main medications for treating synovitis are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for synovitis treatment, as well as TCM for dispelling wind and removing dampness. Medication treatment combined with immobilization devices for the affected limb can control the condition in most patients.
