Pellegrini Stieda Syndrome Treatment in Ayurveda

WHAT IS PELLEGRINI STIEDA SYNDROME?

Pellegrini stieda syndrome is a rare form of joint problem that affects medial collateral ligament (MCL). In this type of joint problem, calcium gets deposit over the medial side of the knee. This disease often occurs in person who have medial collateral ligament injury.

MEDIAL COLLATERAL LIGAMENT AND ITS FUNCTION

In general, there are four major ligaments that are important for the stability of the knee joint. The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is one of them. The medial collateral ligament is made up of tough fibrous material. This ligament functions to control the excessive motion by limiting the mobility of the knee joint.

The Medial collateral ligament covers the distance from the end of the thigh bone (femur) to the top of the shin bone (tibia) and is located inside the knee joint. The MCL prevents widening of the space inside the joint, or we can say, it prevents opening-up of the knee. It prevents the knee from bending inward.

WHAT ARE MCL TEARS?

Injury to the medial collateral ligament causes the MCL or other ligaments of the knee joint to stretch or tear.

MCL tears causes pain, stiffness and swelling in the joint. These symptoms occur along the inner side of the knee joint. Pain can range from moderate to severe depending upon the severity of injury.

TREATMENT OF MCL TEARS

In general, treatment of Pellegrini stieda syndrome depends upon the severity of medial collateral ligament injury. The treatment begins with allowing the pain in the knee to subside and is followed by strengthening the knee to return to their normal function. Sometimes, bracing can be useful for the treatment of medial collateral ligament injuries. Even sometimes, surgery is required to treat the MCL tear.
