How does acupotomy minimally invasive therapy treat rheumatoid arthritis?

Needle knife is a minimally invasive surgical treatment method invented in recent years. It is an organic combination of acupuncture treatment theory of traditional Chinese medicine and surgical treatment theory of western medicine with surgical instruments, which has solved some difficult problems.

For joint swelling, pain, muscle contracture and joint deformity caused by synovitis that can't be controlled by drugs, the joint can be released with a needle knife. This operation can relieve the adhesion between synovium and joint, reduce the tension of synovial sac, scrape scar, effectively relieve pain and swelling, stop or delay the progress of disease, prevent contracture tendon from breaking, and enhance the range of motion of joint. Commonly used in joints such as spine, shoulders, elbows, knees, hips, ankles, wrists, palms and fingers.

Operation method: local skin disinfection, covered with sterile hole towel. Scrape around the joint along the direction of tendon and nerve, and cover the incision with band-aid after operation. 1 ~ 2 days after the incision healed, the pain relieved and disappeared, and it can be treated once every 2 ~ 3 weeks.
