From 25 studies with a total of 125,810 people, 17 studies with a total of 114,829 people were selected for a meta-analysis.

Dai Xuesong, an orthopaedic expert of the Second Zhejiang Hospital related to arthritis and sports injury, said that he had read the latest study in the Journal of Orthopedics and Sports Physical Therapy and agreed with the conclusions.

If it is not used for a long time, the car will break down easily.” Dai Xuesong said that the joints of the human body are the same.

Excessive and high-intensity running may also cause joint problems.

Therefore, when they run occasionally, the pressure in front of the patella is too high (the patella is the kneecap), causing certain soreness and pain.

He said that proper exercise can make joints get exercise, and the toughness and compression resistance of joints can be improved..

By comparison, the probability of joint injury and arthritis may be lower.

Minor pain and injury can be repaired by taking rest and maintenance.

On the contrary, if you do not exercise for a long time, the synovial fluid in the joint cannot flow fully and play the role of lubricant, and the muscle tissue around the joint will gradually shrink.

There has always been a saying that “running Baili only hurts the knee”.

Among those who prefer to sit for a long time or do not run, 10.2% have arthritis in their knees or hips.

Bi Qing, director of orthopaedic department of Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital, also agreed with this conclusion.

Regular exercise can stimulate articular cartilage properly and promote metabolism, so that joint synovial fluid can flow around the joints and play a role in lubrication and nutrition.

“Everyone’s knee joint bone strength, muscle strength, weight, lower limb force line, patella height and other conditions are different, so their tolerance to exercise intensity is also different.

“For example, the car is not meant to be parked in the garage, but to care for it.

Wu Haobo, an orthopedic doctor of the Second Hospital of Zhejiang Medical College, said that there are many reasons for knee pain, such as meniscus injury, synovitis, patellar tendonitis, and infrapatellar fat pad inflammation.

This study was conducted by a research team composed of researchers from the United States, Canada, Spain and Switzerland.

The study found that only 3.5% of fitness runners had arthritis in their knees or hips, both men and women.

He said that arthritis is caused by many factors, excluding arthritis caused by the immune system and other unknown reasons (such as rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis arthritis, villonodular synovitis arthritis, etc.), most of which are closely related to sports.

Over time, the joint will lose its protection, and the probability of joint damage will naturally increase.

Whether running often leads to arthritis has also been controversial.

If the cartilage cannot be repaired, it will cause joint degeneration and induce knee arthritis.

The researchers pointed out that long years of fitness running – 10 years, 15 years, or even longer – is a healthy exercise, which is good for the health of knees and hips.

In fact, they usually do too little exercise.

Knee pain after running is often caused by overload of exercise intensity, which leads to damage of articular cartilage and meniscus.

For those who participate in competitive running (including those who often participate in competitive competitions and professional athletes), the incidence of knee or hip arthritis is slightly higher than that of ordinary people, but not particularly high, 13.3%.

People who often run and exercise, as long as they don’t overdo it, will help the blood supply of joints, cartilage, ligament and tendon nutrition.

If a person’s knee joint can only tolerate the amount of exercise of 20 kilometers of continuous running, but has to run 30 kilometers, it is easy to cause knee joint damage.” Wu Haobo said, of course, the human body has a certain ability to self repair.

People who are sedentary or do not run have an increased risk of arthritis in their knees and hips.

In fact, this is a mistake.

Director Dai Xuesong explained that many people believe that running for fitness will more or less damage the knee joint, simply do not exercise, reduce the wear of articular cartilage, and think that this will protect the joint.

Excessive and high-intensity running may cause joint problems, but for ordinary fitness runners, running is conducive to joint health.

If you do not pay attention to rest and maintenance, it will cause joint damage.

However, if the cartilage of the knee joint is not repaired in time due to long-term overload exercise, it will become ill over time, which may lead to focal cartilage softening and rupture.

The coordination and stability of bones, muscles, ligaments, cartilage and other structures may be insufficient when people who do not exercise at ordinary times suddenly move (you need to run occasionally to move something), which is often easy to cause sports injuries.

Meta analysis means that scientists systematically, scientifically and comprehensively evaluate many research papers on the same problem, remove those studies that are not of high quality or unqualified, and then integrate and evaluate those high-quality studies with certain statistical methods to finally draw scientific conclusions and recommendations.

Instead, it should be used frequently.

The Journal of Orthopedics and Sports Physiotherapy pointed out that the incidence of arthritis in competitive runners was 13.3%, the incidence of arthritis in sedentary people was 10.2%, and the incidence of arthritis in fitness runners was only 3.5%.

However, the American Journal of Orthopedics and Sports Physical Therapy, an internationally renowned authoritative medical journal, published an article to draw a conclusion on this controversial topic.

Is knee pain related to arthritis after running? Bi Qing said that many people have knee pain after running.

This is first and foremost a joint edema.
