Case study : Osteoarthritis, Female, 62 years old
Case study 6 : Osteoarthritis, Female, 62 years old
Good health state, suffered with osteoarthritis for 3 years, this accompanied by varicose vein and thrombosis.
Not taking any medication. In past was taking anti-inflammatory. Diet is good, drinking plenty of water.
History of the current flair up: pain in the left knee (7) affecting walking ability preventing to go up or down stairs.
Observation/ palpation: oedema at the anterior/superior aspect of the knee joint and smaller size of oedema at the medial/superior aspect of the knee, tender to palpation.
Dynamic: difficulty in walking down stairs
Comments: The patient periodically treated herself for small aches and pains of compensatory character and associated with the late and inadequate rehab that resulted in the pain in the opposite foot and sciatic pain due to sciatic nerve irritation. Today status is very good, the patient reports no pain.
