Case Study: Addressing Osteoarthritis and Bursitis of the Knee

A 60-year-old female patient presented to the center with a diagnosis of osteoarthritis of the knee joints and bursitis of the right knee joint. Upon initial assessment, the patient reported a moderate pain syndrome, scoring four to five points on the visual analog scale, and exhibited a high level of functional insufficiency within the affected joints. Notable concomitant pathologies included lumbalgia syndrome.

Clinical Presentation

Prior to the commencement of treatment, the patient reported moderate pain in the right knee joint, which intensified during movement and walking. Clinical observations included swelling of the joint and slight redness on the medial aspect of the knee. Furthermore, the patient experienced regular pain and movement restrictions in both the left knee joint and the lumbar spine. An X-ray examination of the knee joints was conducted prior to the initiation of therapy.

The coMra Therapy Protocol

The treatment plan consisted of 10 sessions, administered once daily, targeting both knee joints and the lumbar spine. During the course of the treatment, the patient utilized a general anti-inflammatory medication for a duration of three days.

Results and Recommendations

Following the completion of the 10-day course, the pain and swelling in the right knee joint had completely resolved. Additionally, the patient reported that the pain in her back and the left knee joint had also been fully alleviated.

It was recommended that the patient continue the course of coMra therapy in two to three weeks, with subsequent sessions to be determined based on her ongoing progress and physical well-being.
