Osteoarthritis is also known
as hyperplastic osteoarthritis, retrograde arthritis,
senile arthritis, hypertrophic arthritis or osteoarthropathy.
Osteoarthritis means retrograde osteoarthropathy.
It is the non-inflammatory retrograde degeneration
caused by aging or other reasons, and formation
of osteophyte at the edge of joint. The clinical
symptoms include joint pain, activity limitation
and joint deformity.
There are primary osteoarthritis and secondary osteoarthritis.
The primary osteoarthritis is the joint pathologic
change caused by aging and is not relative to any
other diseases. Secondary osteoarthritis is caused
by traumatic injury, distortion, insufficient blood
supply and arthritis. The statistic shows that 85%
of the people over age 55 have bony spur.
Osteoarthritis usually happens at the joint of spine,
most often on the neck and waist, it can also happen
to the knee, hip, elbow and ankle. Since osteoarthritis
is a kind of regressive disease, until now, there
is no effective method to treat it. The common treatment
is to improve the join function by anti-inflammation,
detumescence, and pain relief. The severe cases
need artificial joint replacement.
The theories of OsteoKing for osteoarthritis:
The active ingredients in OsteoKing
can dredge main and collateral channels, activate
blood circulation and nourish Qi (the vital
energy believed to be responsible for health
and vitality in traditional Chinese Medicine),
dissolve stasis of blood and strengthen the
body resistance. Because of these functions,
the unbalanced internal organs get improved
and their functions get recovered. By the
view of modern medical theory, OsteoKing can
improve the circulation and microcirculation
of injured organs; improve blood supply of
local tissue, tendon and theca; improve the
cell aerobic metabolism; remove the toxic
medium. It also has anti-inflammation, detumescence,
and pain relieve functions. |

OsteoKing can tonify liver and kidney,
strengthen bone, slower retrograde degeneration,
restrict bone absorb and stimulate trabecula
growth, prevent and cure osteoporosis and
prevent the formation of osteophyte. |

According to Chinese traditional
medical theory, injury and emotion unbalance
can induce blood stasis all over the body,
then tendon and bone will atrophy, and cause
joint ineffective or hyperplasia. OsteoKing
can improve blood circulation, tonify tendon
and bone. After the tendon and bone are tonified,
the pain and swelling will disappear, so OsteoKing
has remarkable curative effect. |
The results of the
pharmacodynamics research show that OsteoKing
has the following functions
