Abstract

Calcified tendinitis is one of the most common causes of shoulder pain and is characterized by the evidence of presence of calcific deposition in the rotator cuff. It is seen commonly affecting the supraspinatus tendon; however, it can be present in asymptomatic individuals also. The calcification requires surgical removal after that the tendon reconstitute again itself some times it disappear spontaneously also. In this case report, a 54-year-old male patient presented with painful restricted movements of the right shoulder joint. X-ray right shoulder demonstrated 1.5-cm sized calcific deposition in the supraspinatus tendon and was treated with two sittings of wet cupping therapy (WCT). The patient was assessed by Visual Analog Scale score and active range of movement. This case report shows that the cases of calcified supraspinatus tendinitis may be successfully managed with Raktamokshana (WCT).
Raktamokshana(湿罐疗法)在管理钙化冈上肌腱炎表现为肩周炎:一个罕见的病例报告
钙化肌腱炎是肩关节疼痛最常见的原因之一,其特征是在肩袖处存在钙化沉积。它通常影响冈上肌腱;然而,它也可能出现在无症状的个体中。钙化需要手术切除之后肌腱会自行重建有时也会自行消失。在这个病例报告中,一位54岁的男性患者表现为右肩关节活动受限的疼痛。右肩x线显示冈上肌腱1.5 cm大小的钙化沉积,并采用湿拔罐治疗(WCT)。通过视觉模拟量表评分和活动范围对患者进行评估。本病例报告显示,钙化冈上肌腱炎的情况下,可以成功地管理与Raktamokshana (WCT)。
