Difficulty stopping is a disease that progresses silently, and in the early stages, there are often no obvious symptoms. When the disease gradually gets worse, pain in the corners, spreading to the thighs or knees, limiting movement, getting weak, and not being able to get on a motorbike on their own are common symptoms. Many cases are mistakenly diagnosed with knee degenerative disease due to spreading pain, leading to delayed treatment.
Sternal joint replacement surgery helps the patient relieve pain, restore mobility, return to normal activities and improve the quality of life.
After 1 week of surgery, the patient can resist the weaning and start physical therapy to restore muscle strength and mobility when the body recovers.
