Si últimamente notas dolor en la rodilla al practicar deporte podría deberse a una artrosis, una patología muy común que padecen muchos deportistas, o bien podrías padecer artrosis degenerativa propia de la edad.
La artrosis es una enfermedad crónica que tiende a aparecer con el transcurso de los años, generando una reducción de la movilidad articular y dolor en los ligamentos, cartílagos y huesos de la rodilla. El cartílago tiende a desintegrarse produciendo que los huesos choquen entre sí y se inflamen. Actualmente, 7 millones de pacientes en España sufren artrosis. Es la primera causa de incapacidad permanente y la tercera causa de incapacidad laboral.
La artrosis es una enfermedad crónica que tiende a aparecer con los años.
Si miramos la afectación que produce esta patología en los deportistas, el impacto sufrido con el running o el crossfit castiga severamente a nuestras articulaciones si no los practicamos con mesura y respetando el descanso del cuerpo. Además, deportes tradicionales como el fútbol o el balonmano también afectan a la larga a las rodillas de manera crónica.
Por todo ello, conviene acudir a un médico especialista para encontrar la mejor solución y seguir manteniendo una buena calidad de vida, a pesar de que se siga practicando deporte. Además, el Dr. González-Viejo es integrante del equipo médico de Celular Clinic, clínica especializada en Medicina Regenerativa, donde los pacientes podrán beneficiarse de tratamientos personalizados con células madre y factores de crecimiento de primera calidad.
