Manifestations of rheumatism
Common rheumatism includes: rheumatism, rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic cold joint pain, gout, ankylosing spondylitis, osteoporosis, hyperosteogeny, proliferative arthritis, scapulohumeral periarthritis, lupus erythematosus, postpartum wind, intractable low back pain, sciatica, Sjogren's syndrome and so on.
Clinical symptoms: pain, tenderness, numbness, swelling, stiffness, joint deformation, pain wandering, etc.
(1) Joint pain: Different diseases and joints have different parts and pain properties. For example, rheumatoid arthritis is mainly manifested as wrist, palm, finger and toe joint pain, and the pain is multi-joint, symmetrical and persistent; Ankylosing spondylitis mainly manifests as asymmetry and persistent pain in hip, sacrum, knee and ankle. Bone and joint pain is mainly manifested as unilateral or bilateral pain of knee joint, which is relieved after rest; Gout is mainly manifested as unilateral severe pain in the first metatarsophalangeal joint, which often occurs at night, and patients often wake up with pain. The soreness of rheumatism has the characteristics of changing with the weather and season.
(2) Morning stiffness: After getting up in the morning or having a long rest, patients often feel stiffness and pain in joints, limbs, waist and other affected parts. The joints are sticky and stiff, which can be relieved or disappeared after activities. This disease is most prominent in rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis and osteoarthritis. It can last for several hours, but it lasts for a short time in other arthritis.
(3) Joint swelling and tenderness: it is a sign of synovitis or inflammation of surrounding soft tissues, and its degree varies with inflammation, which is caused by hydrops in joint cavity or synovial hypertrophy. Swelling: swelling caused by bone enlargement, as hard as bone, unable to move; The swelling caused by hyperplasia and hypertrophy of soft tissues in or around joints is different from that caused by healthy tissues. Swelling caused by edema or hematocele has a sense of fluctuation. Tenderness: Some functional diseases often have no obvious tenderness point or the tenderness is very light, and the tenderness point can often find the lesion site more accurately. The degree of tenderness can reflect the severity of the lesion.
(4) Joint deformity and dysfunction: the normal shape and range of motion of the finger joint are limited, such as the knee joint can not be completely straightened, the ulna of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the finger is deviated, and the joint is subluxated. These changes are related to the destruction of cartilage and bone, which is the most common in rheumatoid arthritis.
(5) Systemic symptoms: such as butterfly spots on cheeks, suggesting systemic lupus erythematosus; Psoriatic arthritis; For example, ankylosing spondylitis is more common in young people, systemic lupus erythematosus is more common in women of childbearing age, gout is more common in middle-aged people, and osteoarthritis is more common in the elderly.
(6) Infection-related: Many chronic inflammatory rheumatic diseases, including diffuse connective tissue diseases, are chronic, recurrent and progressive, and eventually lead to disability or death.

General rheumatism is not properly treated, and most of them turn into severe rheumatism and rheumatoid disease in the later stage. Rheumatism is caused by wind evil permeating the bone surface from the outside to the inside, which leads to bone malnutrition, deformation, dryness and necrosis of movable joints, accumulation of rheumatic metabolites in joint cavities or between joints, edema and hydrops in movable joint cavities, and metabolic disorder. Some patients develop rheumatoid arthritis. Long-term rheumatism invades the human body, occupies the body and affects the body. It leads to the loss and deformation of nutrients in internal organs and blood vessels, atrophy of some body muscle tissues, and direct invasion of the five internal organs in severe cases, which leads to visceral diseases, decreased visceral function, weakened blood circulation, insufficient nutrition supply in limbs, dry bones and muscles, and serious rheumatoid disease. One of the main causes of intractable postpartum wind, such as wind entering the kidney, can lead to decreased renal function. Appropriate participation in beneficial sports.
Depression easily leads to stagnation of liver qi, which leads to stagnation of qi and blood, which leads to nutrient loss. If you are not careful, evil winds will invade. Its clinical symptoms are: fear of cold, fear of wind, pain in moving joints, accompanied by numbness, convulsions, swelling and other factors.
Impatient people get angry easily, and think too many people secretly consume yin and blood. The former will hurt the internal wind, while the latter will consume internal heat, leading to blood dryness. The theory of traditional Chinese medicine is that "blood deficiency produces wind", that is, blood can not nourish bones and muscles, which is also called wind-like disease. The specific clinical symptoms are general joint pain, headache or local pain, and some patients are accompanied by fear of cold and wind.
