TCM nursing care of a case of left knee degenerative osteoarthritis
This case report discusses the TCM nursing practice of a patient with left knee degenerative osteoarthritis. In view of the poor effect of conventional treatment, the nursing team combined with local hot compress, acupuncture and massage, dietary conditioning and other traditional Chinese medicine nursing measures, and formulated a personalized nursing plan according to the specific situation of patients. In the process of nursing, intervention should be carried out around relaxing tendons and activating blood circulation, warming meridians and dispersing cold, and gradually improve patients' pain and joint function. After nursing, the patient's pain score decreased significantly, joint mobility improved, and self-care ability recovered. It shows that TCM Comprehensive nursing has significant effect in relieving chronic knee pain and improving function, and provides valuable experience and practical reference for clinical nursing of similar cases.
