Knee Problems Connected with Incorrect Positions of Sitting
Journal Title: Journal of Orthopaedic Science and Research - Year 2020, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The pathology of knee and hips in children and adults can be caused by different factors. Disfunction of the hip joint can be connected with dysplasia not properly cured in the childhood, with Perthes disease, with epiphyseolisis capitis femors juvenilis, with trauma and other influences. The knee insufficiency can be connected with incorrect axis of shank or kneevalgus or varus, with flexion contracture or recurvation of the knee, with a pathology of patellofemoral joint and other influence. Since 2012 we have observed “others influences”, among which an “incorrect position of sitting”, which is leading to pathology of the knee-instability and pain syndromes. In the article, we present many cases of such pathology and we are giving the rules of the therapy and prophylaxis. Other influences-incorrect sitting-appear very frequently in our material, but till now such “etiological factors in pathology of the knee” have not been presented in the literature.
