Knee Arthritis & Hyaluronic Acid Therapy

Knee Arthritis & Treatment in Canton, Ohio

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis and affects millions of people each year. It is the gradual wear and tear of the cartilage at the end of a person’s bones.  Many patients who experience this pain try mild painkillers and physical therapy to get relief. However, sometimes that is not enough. Knee pain that is caused by osteoarthritis can now be treated with a non-surgical, drug-free solution.

 

Introducing Hyaluronic Acid Therapy

Hyaluronic Acid is a joint fluid therapy that uses a solution consisting of all-natural, highly-purified sodium hyaluronan. This fluid is already found in the body and is a common component of connective tissues and fluids found in the joints of the knee.

Hyaluronic Acid Therapy has been around since 1987 and is the most commonly used joint fluid therapy in the world. It has been used millions of times since its introduction and is very effective.  There are only a handful of minimal side effects which have been reported. These include joint pain, back pain, injection site pain, and headaches. No anaphylactic reactions have been observed in any patients.

How does it work?

Hyaluronic Acid joint therapy is injected once a week into the knee for a total of five injections. After each injection, the patient should avoid vigorous activities such as jogging, tennis, heaving lifting or standing for extended periods of time.  After all five injections have been completed, the patient should feel relief from the pain and discomfort caused by osteoarthritis.
