What is the difference between fasciitis and synovitis? Does fasciitis hurt?

1 What's the difference between fasciitis and synovitis? Fasciitis and synovitis are inflammation in two parts of human body. Fasciitis refers to the white fibrous tissue of human body, including tendons, muscle membranes, joint capsules, ligaments, etc., which is a kind of aseptic inflammation caused by various reasons, while synovitis refers to an inflammation of synovium in joints caused by acute trauma or chronic strain and infection. There are two specific differences between them:

First of all, it happens in different parts. Synovitis occurs in joints, while fasciitis occurs in white fibrous tissue of human body, usually outside joints, which can occur in vivo or in muscles.

Secondly, fasciitis is a kind of aseptic inflammation, but it is not caused by bacterial infection. Synovitis can be caused by bacterial infection, such as suppurative synovitis. But synovitis usually has two kinds of aseptic inflammation, one is caused by acute trauma and the other is caused by chronic strain.

Does it hurt to press fasciitis? First of all, we must figure out what fasciitis is. Fasciitis refers to a clinical manifestation of white fibrous tissue caused by various reasons, including fascia, basement membrane, ligament and periosteum. It is also called fibrositis or myorheumatism. Its main feature is related to pressing. It will have a trigger point and radiation pain. What is the trigger point? Usually fasciitis will produce subcutaneous nodules and subcutaneous cords. When looking for subcutaneous nodules and subcutaneous cords, you can find a trigger point around them, which will cause pain immediately after touching. This is called the trigger point. Then there will be radiation pain after stimulating the trigger point, which is actually reflex pain after nerve stimulation.

Therefore, as long as the fasciitis is pressed correctly, there will definitely be pain, and it is not only local pain, but also distant pain. In this case, we can consider making a diagnostic closure, that is, giving this trigger an anesthetic, with or without hormones, and then the pain will be relieved or even disappeared immediately.

3 How to diagnose fasciitis At present, the diagnosis of fasciitis is still combined with clinical manifestations, physical examination and auxiliary examination.

First, let's talk about its clinical manifestations. Its clinical manifestations are indirect pain and numbness, which mostly occur in neck and shoulder, chest and back and lumbosacral region.

The second point is the physical examination. Fasciitis generally has a trigger point, and radiation pain will appear after touching the trigger point. Then there are tiny nodules under the skin, or there are fibrous cords under the skin. Diagnostic shutdown is more effective. What is diagnostic shutdown? It means that after finding this trigger point, you stimulate it, causing radiation pain of sciatic nerve, and then anesthetize this pain point, with or without hormones, the pain will be relieved or even disappeared immediately.

Then the auxiliary examination is usually to check an anti-"O" or a rheumatoid disease, which are basically higher than normal. If X-ray or CT is taken, the results are basically negative, so fasciitis can be basically diagnosed according to clinical manifestations, physical examination and auxiliary examination.

Is fasciitis serious? Fasciitis is not serious.

Fasciitis refers to white fibrous tissue caused by various reasons. This white fibrous tissue, including fascia, sarcolemma, ligament, tendon, periosteum and tendon sheath, is a pathological change with inflammatory reaction. There are two reasons: primary refers to wind-cold rheumatism, and secondary refers to traumatic infection with rheumatic fever. The symptoms of fasciitis itself are mainly pain, tenderness and radiation pain. This kind of pain is not serious, and then the limitation of activity is not serious. However, the trouble is easy to recur. Clinically, it is often seen that patients get fasciitis, do a treatment, get well, and then commit crimes again, and have a long-term chronic cycle. Secondly, there is no particularly effective treatment for fasciitis in clinic at present, and it is basically symptomatic treatment. Thirdly, fasciitis widely exists in all parts of the body, but mainly in the neck and waist, scapula, thoracic vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae and sacrum. So this thing is like this. Fasciitis is not serious, but it is still a very troublesome disease because of its wide range of attacks and easy recurrence, and there is no good treatment in clinic.
