Ms. Jia came to our hospital for treatment due to pain and limited mobility in both knees that had persisted for two years.
Medical History and Treatment History
The patient reported that around July 2013, without any obvious cause, she began to experience pain in both knees accompanied by limited mobility. At that time, there was no swelling, redness, or fever, and the symptoms worsened on rainy and cloudy days. She took painkillers on her own and applied plasters externally for treatment, but the effect was not satisfactory. In September 2013, she went to a local hospital for a consultation. The imaging report showed that she had knee arthritis in both knees. At that time, she was treated with a combination of acupuncture and oral medications. The treatment lasted for more than two years, but the results were not good. In November 2015, the symptoms suddenly worsened, and she had difficulty walking. After consulting with many places, she came to our hospital for treatment.
