How to check for arthritis

If the patient has arthritis, it is generally necessary to carefully carry out relevant physical examination and relevant auxiliary examination. During physical examination, check whether the patient's joint movement is limited, including its active movement and passive movement. Check whether the joint is locked and whether there is sound when moving. Generally, it is also necessary to check whether there is obvious fluid accumulation in the joint, such as the patient's knee joint, which can be checked by floating patellar test. If the floating patellar test is positive, it means that his joint effusion exceeds 50 ml. At the same time, the patient needs to carry out relevant CT examination and magnetic resonance examination, including X-ray examination, so as to observe whether the joint space of the patient narrows, whether there is joint space disappearance, whether there is cartilage destruction and other conditions. The above scheme is only for reference. Please use the specific drugs under the guidance of professional doctors according to your own conditions.
