The reason why girls have big knee bones

What is the reason for girls' big kneecaps? It is fully considered that big kneecaps in girls are caused by congenital development and genetic genes, or they are caused by knee joint deformation caused by trauma. According to your situation, it is recommended that you observe whether the kneecaps on both sides are further expanded. It is recommended that you go to the hospital outpatient department for an X-ray examination to observe whether it is a pathophysiological condition, and carry out detailed treatment according to the examination results.

There is a very important reason why women have large kneecaps. Nowadays, women pursue beauty and love to be slim. Their legs are generally slender, so their kneecaps are relatively larger. In fact, there is no problem with this. The kneecaps of some middle-aged and elderly people appear larger because they have knee osteoarthritis, also known as kneecap bone hyperplasia. Kneecap bone hyperplasia is more common in middle-aged and elderly women, with a higher incidence rate than in men. Sports industry enthusiasts are a high-risk group. Some patients with kneecap bone hyperplasia suffer a lot, with pain in walking, muscle stiffness, swelling, and limited movement. Therefore, if a girl has large kneecaps, then there is no problem as long as it is not accompanied by pain or muscle stiffness. If symptoms such as pain, muscle stiffness and restricted movement are present, you should go to the hospital for a checkup.

Patients with prominent kneecaps may benefit from the following management and precautions:

1. Such patients should go to the orthopedics or sports medicine department as soon as possible to establish the cause of such symptoms and then deal with them accordingly. In these cases, there may be fluid accumulation inside the kneecap, or an abnormality in the natural shape of the patella.

2. If only the patella is exposed but there are no clinical symptoms, it can be temporarily left untreated and continued to be observed.

3. If there is knee joint effusion, conservative treatment can be selected in the early stage. Conservative treatment requires patients to stay in bed, brake, rest, and pay attention to keeping the kneecap warm. On this basis, non-steroidal drugs can be used as auxiliary anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs. For severe effusion, liposuction of the effusion or arthroscopic surgery can be used to remove it.

4. Patellar pain and patellar instability caused by abnormal patellar shape can be treated with soft tissue balancing surgery. The main basic principle of this type of surgical treatment is to tighten the medial cruciate ligament of the patella and release the cruciate ligaments on both sides of the soft tissue, so as to restore the kneecap to its normal motion track and eliminate related clinical symptoms.

5. In some very serious cases, patellar replacement is required.
