How to treat hip joint effusion
Disease description:
My girlfriend seems to have fluid accumulation in her hip joint. I'm not sure how serious it is. How is hip joint effusion treated?
Hip joint effusion is closely related to synovitis. After the onset of effusion, it is important to keep the area warm and avoid cold exposure. Prolonged sitting, walking, or bearing weight should be avoided as much as possible to reduce friction and stress on the hip joint, which could worsen the condition. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and blood-activating, stasis-resolving medications may be used to promote the absorption of the effusion. If necessary, anti-inflammatory drugs can be administered to prevent inflammatory reactions associated with the effusion, thereby facilitating its absorption.
