TCM for Knee Osteoarthritis

This patient came with 4 months right knee pain and swelling was diagnosed with knee osteoarthritis. Had taken medications and partial injections but finally was suggested to have a surgery since the result was not promising.

When she came to our clinic, she barely could bend the right side of the knee, hard to walk well not mention climb the stairs.

After TCM decoction and acupuncture treatment in 2 months, the degree of pain and swelling also reduced gradually, so as the other symptoms.

Knee Osteoarthritis is a very common case but tricky for treatment since the joints of knees mostly are hard for patients to take enough rest. For the group of hypertension, diabetic or hyperlipemia, with poor circulation and metabolism, usually need more sessions of treatment.

We are so glad to hear the nice feedback that she didn’t need to consider the medications and any surgery for her knee!
