Question
After a child has a cold, even though the symptoms of the cold have healed, they experience leg pain and are diagnosed with synovitis, accompanied by effusion. Sometimes the pain worsens, and walking becomes difficult due to the inability to fully exert force on the leg, leading to limping.
Answer
For this condition, it is recommended to seek immediate medical attention for a thorough examination. Treatment can include invigorate blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis (TCM) herbal medicine therapy, combined with acupuncture, massage, and heat therapy. At the same time, attention should be paid to nutritional supplementation and adequate rest, ensuring an intake of sufficient vitamins and trace elements. In daily care, it is advisable to consume more vegetables and fruits, as well as calcium-rich foods, to prevent or reduce similar occurrences.
