In recent years, the incidence of various chronic diseases and cancers has become higher and higher, and it has shown an upward trend year by year, so many people have begun to pay attention to health. There are daily attention to diet, rest, mentality and other aspects of the conditioning, and many people will insist on exercise every day.
Among all the exercise methods, the exercise method that is popular among the middle-aged and elderly groups and some young people is violent walking, such as 20,000 steps per day. This type of person believes that if you walk more than 20,000 steps a day, your immunity will be improved, your body will be better, and you will have the effect of curing diseases and prolonging life.
However, after taking 20,000 steps a day, many people will have severe pain in their knees and even be admitted to the hospital. The reason for this phenomenon is that it is related to the cause of synovitis.
Why does 20,000 steps a day cause synovitis?
1. Violent walking leads to rupture of the synovial part
Many people will have a very serious and severe pain in the knee area after a period of violent walking. Swelling can also occur in the knee joint, resulting in severe restriction of movement.
The reason for this situation is that it is related to synovitis due to long-term mass exodus. Inside the human joint capsule there is a relatively soft membrane of connective tissue. It can secrete some synovial fluid to lubricate the joints, and it can also provide some nutrients for the cartilage and meniscus parts of the joints.
However, the synovium is susceptible to traumatic damage, such as a long period of violent walking, which will lead to rupture of the synovial area, and cause hyperemia and edema, resulting in a large amount of fluid accumulation in the synovial area. These effusions can cause a series of disorders in lymphatic circulation, which can induce the appearance of acute synovitis.
2. Overextension causes various inflammations of the synovium
Due to the long-term violent walking, the synovial area will be over-strained, and some inflammation is easy to occur, which is easy to cause the appearance of acute purulent synovitis. If left untreated, it can turn into chronic purulent synovitis.
Once long-term infection with inflammation, the immune function of the synovial area will be reduced, and it is easy to infect some tuberculous bacteria, thereby inducing chronic tuberculous synovitis.
Which groups of people are not suitable for violent exercise?
1. People who are seriously overweight
Although walking 10,000 or 20,000 steps a day can play a very good role in weight loss, it is not suitable for people who seriously exceed the weight. People who are severely overweight are under great pressure on the knee joint when they walk.
If the exercise time and amount are not well controlled, it will lead to greater wear and tear on various parts such as the knee joint and the ankle joint, and it is easy to induce the emergence of various joint diseases.
2, do not exercise often crowd
Whether it is a young group or a middle-aged and elderly group, whether it is a chronic disease, if there is no regular exercise, or if the time for daily exercise is relatively small, then this type of group is not suitable for violent exercise.
Otherwise, it will not only cause excessive wear and tear on the joints, but also increase the burden on some other organs, which is very harmful to health.
All in all, the cause of synovitis caused by a violent walk of 20,000 steps per day is related to the rupture of the synovial site caused by the violent walk and caused a series of inflammations. Therefore, in daily life, we must not randomly carry out long-term rampage exercise.
In addition, if there is a very obvious joint redness, swelling, pain, and limited mobility during and after the exercise, you must be admitted to the hospital for formal treatment at the first time to maximize the health of the joint part.
