Joint Locking
Description:
Joint locking occurs when the normal range of motion of a joint is restricted or temporarily halted, typically due to a mechanical blockage or abnormal movement. It often results from conditions such as joint inflammation, injury, or damage to the cartilage or ligaments surrounding the joint. When the joint becomes locked, it can cause pain, swelling, and difficulty moving the affected limb.
Causes:
- Osteoarthritis or joint degeneration.
- Trauma or injury to the joint.
- Cartilage damage or dislocation.
- Inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.
Treatment:
Treatment may involve physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, or joint injections. In severe cases, surgery might be needed to repair or replace the damaged joint. Rest and ice can help reduce swelling and pain during flare-ups.
