The aid of neural therapy in the resolution of partial rupture of the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments in a male patient: A case report

Abstract

The knee injury is the most common among the serious injuries presented by soccer players, highlighting the anterior cruciate ligament as one of the most frequently injured knee ligaments. Posterior cruciate ligament injuries are uncommon and are usually associated with other concomitants, such as meniscus disease. Neural Therapy is defined as using local anesthetics in low concentrations according to the patient's life history, with the objective of body self-regulation. Procaine hydrochloride has cell repolarization functions and analgesic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and healing effects. This study aims to report the case of a conservative treatment performed on a 33-year-old male patient with partial rupture of the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments after a fall in a football match and his recovery after treatment with a return to physical activity.
