Pes Anserine Bursitis

Grade 1 to 2 MCL injuries can be recovered with conservative treatment, and the treatment approach overlaps significantly with that of pes anserinus tendinitis. If both conditions coexist, medial knee stability decreases further, increasing the risk of recurrence; therefore, ligament strengthening therapy must be performed concurrently. For a Grade 3 complete rupture, the need for surgery must first be determined by an orthopedic surgeon.

Perspective of Korean Medicine Clinic

In Korean medicine, ligaments are viewed as dependent on liver function and the nutritional supply of the blood. If blood stasis accumulates in the ligament area, elasticity decreases and damage accumulates. At Dongjedang, we separate ligament and tendon adhesions using needle acupuncture, directly supply anti-inflammatory and regenerative components through bee venom and pharmacopuncture, and induce collagen resynthesis with thread embedding. We design our treatment to firmly reconstruct both ligaments and tendons by combining this with herbal medicine that replenishes liver function and removes blood stasis.
