Why do girls' knees turn red?

There are many types of examinations in the hospital. We will find that more and more people are more concerned about knee problems and choose to go to large hospitals for examination and treatment. For example, some girls now feel redness in their knees. In this case, it may be that the knee has been strained before, or there is a problem with the bone in the middle, which are all reasons for the redness of the knees.

Plain radiographs (X-rays)

Used to determine the width of bone gaps, fractures and other bone injuries.

MRI

It can examine lesions of intra-articular cartilage, ligaments, meniscus, synovium, synovial bursa and bone marrow lesions. Specifically, it can be checked to see if there is fluid accumulation in the knee.

Arthroscopy (a type of endoscopy to examine the inside of a joint)

With its help, the synovium, cartilage, meniscus, and ligaments can be directly observed. Arthroscopic technology can directly collect fluid from the diseased area for examination, providing a pathological basis for the diagnosis of various arthritis. Unlike the above two imaging examinations, arthroscopy is not only used for examination, but can also be used for the removal and repair of diseased tissue within the joint. It is less painful, has a faster recovery, and reduces the probability of postoperative complications.
