Patient's question:
A few days ago, I organized a mountain-climbing club. The mountain was very slippery, and it had just rained, so the ground was a bit slippery. I accidentally fell and scraped my knee. When I got home, I realized my knee was very painful. I asked a few questions about how to treat patellar bursitis. Can you quickly explain it to me?Doctor's answer:
This patellar bursitis is mainly caused by previous injuries, although it is possible in very few cases that it may develop from other types of bursitis. It is best to visit a hospital for an MRI examination. In terms of treatment, topical anti-inflammatory and blood-activating ointments can be used. Please follow the doctor's advice regarding specific medications. Rest and recovery should be prioritized in the near future. You may also choose to visit a hospital for physical therapy to help alleviate the pain.
