Hyaluronic Acid Knee Injection

[@chrisrogers8430]

They worked for me, fortunately tthe Spanish healthcare system includes this type of treatment.

[@anyaisabela]

I have bone to bone and had monovisc. Same procedure. It has helped me. Key is to trust your ortho.

[@ddd1dorin396]

The injection was painful?

[@jgsmile1331]

​@@ddd1dorin396They mumb the skin with cool spray. A little prick and feels like a water balloon being filled and that is it. Very little pain and so far it has helped.

[@sparkydogsparky2992]

I've just had the first of three shots. The second and third shots will be one week apart from each other. I am the world's biggest weenie, and I couldn't even tell when the injection was done. It was a non-event! I could tell some improvement after the first injection. Can't wait to have the remaining two!

[@rosemariekury9186]

Just had mine done. 3 injections for 3 weeks. He did use the ultrasound. Had a little pain with the injection but felt fine afterwords. Would rather have this than knee replacements.

[@MrReddy7777]

Hi, how long does this work?

[@bengalsfan63]

I'm getting this done after work on May 29. I'm on my feet 8 hours a day on my job. My knee is bone on bone and it hurts so much. I'm hoping I'll be worth it.

[@ghenadiesuns8489]

Do you have any updates? Did it help you. I'm contemplating getting this done for my knee pain.

[@bhuvaneswarik5978]

How was your knee now

[@HectorPerez-yn8rv]

Amazing keep up the good work!!

[@bigmartin]

I had it done three days ago, minimal pain or discomfort and today 100% relief

[@beansrgd]

Trust me this hurts more than you’d believe. He’s taking forever!!!!

[@holly_kay5570]

I can see it's causing the guy a lot of pain! How awful!

[@KhABCDLeo]

No pain at all, going once a year to get those injection

[@edibeedee]

Had my 1st injection. No local, virtually no pain.

[@edibeedee]

The injection is nothing compared to the pain of bone on bone.

[@bigmartin]

Had mine done three days ago, no pain and today I’ve complete relief

[@Trust788]

I have no cartilage left at all can I still get these?

[@theresastuffle2006]

Same here. My doctor gave me my gel shot the same way he had given me my cortisone shot. I'm in more pain now than I've ever been. Called his office, and he said it was time for a knee replacement. So disappointing with both the shot and doctor.

[@kathyh455]

This is my story, too.

[@ddd1dorin396]

😢

[@debbiebenson162]

Same for me too 😢

[@Paul-vf2wl]

Yeah the success rate is about 30%

[@catalinarivera5890]

Just had mine done today. No scan needed and the pain was just a little. He did not waste our time with numbing meds. Just sprayed the outside. I felt a small pinch then I felt very little pressure during the injection. Local anesthetic is a waste of time. Man up!

[@WeightsNGunz]

Same here. Had one yesterday. Did it help you?

[@SiddharthSukhwal]

I had it done on right knee. Pain for like 2-3 seconds max. But soreness and pain in knee for few days after. So its good to rest for 5-6 days and then begin therapy.

[@leahkena9218]

Hi, so this cant accidently go in blood ? Also can this be done for bone on bone osteoarthritis ?

[@clariusmhealth]

Hi leahkena - it's Shelley from Clarius. You questions are very clinical, I'm afraid I don't have the answers, but perhaps you could reach out to Dr. Brereton directly?

[@sylviadominguez8327]

Good question!!! I would love to know this answer

[@mohamedbhamani6555]

To inject into blood the needle tip would have to be within a blood vessel which using the landmark guided technique is highly unlikely because 1. There are no major vessels in that area and 2. Before injecting you always draw back on the needle and if you see blood you do not proceed. Using an USS technique injection into a blood vessel would be almost impossible due to reasons above, but also as you can visualise blood vesss in real time. Re bone on bone arthritis you can use it but less likely to give a prolonged benefit if any. In such cases knee replacement surgery is the only real definitive treatment..

[@jdbishop8512]

Yes I get my gel shots starting on March 25 😊

[@jdbishop8512]

Then comes surgery in 3 years from now. 😢😮

[@richardnunziata3221]

good luck finding a doctor who will used ultrasound to monitor inject site...never done in practice

[@trantrongnhan5452]

Oh no, I am from Vietnam, and I work at the clinic which always use ultrasound when doing this.

[@mustafaveeky]

We do that 10-20 times everyday

[@ninnellovrik]

So what, a good technique is important, ultrasound is just adjuvant, not a necessity

[@AnastasiaCully]

My Drs Always Always use this. .I woulmt allow them to touch me without it...I'm surprised.

[@DrFelemban]

Well Musculoskeletal imaging radiologists and interventional radiologists use US as a standard in all procedures

[@thomasjones9394]

I am amazed at how much relief I get from rubbing in THC oil till it gets warm. Have you tried it?

[@rootcanal7188]

@thomasjones, Where did you get your THC oil? I am not finding anything online. Thanks for any help you can offer.

[@thomasjones9394]

@@rootcanal7188 It was $38 and that was one year ago here in Abbotsford BC Canada. It is very hard to find now.

[@rootcanal7188]

@@thomasjones9394 Thank you for the reply. Yes, it is easy to find roll-on CBD oil, but almost impossible to find the THC oil. I have seen some recipes online where you bake the marijuana in an oven, then convert it into a liquid. The smell may have the cops knocking on your door, however.

[@myheart245]

My husband started taking MoveMD comprehensive joint support he found on the web. It took about 5 wks but his bone on bone pain is gone, it actually worked. He had already scheduled injections so he did start them to help with lubrication. Second injection, 3 are recommended, once a week for 3 wks. He tried CBD oil w/ a small amount of THC but that didn't help. It may have been because he was looking for instantaneous relief.

Can you post when you get it please I’m scheduled to get my first one next Tuesday

Feeling better?

I wonder if I can start running again now that I feel better?😂🤣😅

[@billganas467]

I've had 3 surg's on my R knee and i can't count how many injections and fluid withdrawals, my advice is 'Smoke a Big Fat One' before you go in and hold your breath.....i am facing some form of treatment on my knee now and know replacement will be suggested. So, today is my start on researching options......good luck to all 🙂

Got the HA injection today, (6-28-2024) Three cc lidocaine and 6cc synvisc one. I forgot to ask the Dr, how long till I can play golf again? A week? Two weeks?

@@bhuvaneswarik5978 The gel shot did hurt worse than the cortisone shot. After the shot was over, I didn't have anymore pain. The gel shot didn't work for me. It may work for you, so give it a try if you're thinking about it.

[@bigal25938]

So you stick a needle in to numb it because you are going to stick a needle in.

[@PatiOrtinau]

Larger needle is used for the gel that's why the pain relief shot first w sm needle

When my doctor does this he usually uses a RUSTY NAIL and then he will ask me if I felt any pain, I say hell yea, than he says good you're still alive.

[@holly_kay5570]

This procedure looks extremely painful!!!

[@joes5402]

can you please answer why you did not aspirate the knee fluid first?? I’m going for this procedure and see mostly negotiate reviews. why would you not aspirate knowing the risk of injection would more likely not be inserted properly??

[@clariusmhealth]

Hi Joes5402 - thanks for your comment. I believe the idea is that when ultrasound is used to guide the injection, the injector can watch where the needle is and watch the injection happen to confirm accurate placement. Ultrasound is amazing for this, and more and more specialists are turning to ultrasound (some are even regulated) to use ultrasound when performing interventions.

I know , so do I , my knee is hudge since Durolane. I have seen 2 orthopedists 1 rheumatologist! 3 urgent care! I am going crazy since Durolane injection I can’t walk without been afraid to fall! My procedure was remove fluid and inject cortisone and Durolane.

I had Durolane injection that went bad from Clinique Lacroix in Qc Canada. I now understand that this is not a 30 seconds procedure. I was also pulled fluid and injected cortisone. If anyone can help me solve my hudge swolen knee I would be so gratefull.

[@SulaimanBarrie-rv8fm]

I think you must try and research about nSTRIDE🤔.It seems promising and lasts for about 3 years which reduces swellings,infections and redness of the knee also.

Bonjour est-il recommandé de faire de la kinésithérapie après ?

[@koldplayz1]

7 out of 10 neurosurgeons miss the target and inject into fad pad. The 3 out of 10 that hit the target, understand the anatomy and physiology of the knee and have no use for an ultrasound device to guide them. This guy is a ND. Hmmmmmm
