Knee injection therapies are commonly used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with knee osteoarthritis (OA). These therapies can provide significant symptom relief, improve joint function, and delay the need for more invasive treatments such as knee replacement surgery. Here are the main types of knee injection therapies used to treat osteoarthritis:
Corticosteroid Injections: also known as steroids, are powerful anti-inflammatory medications that can reduce pain and swelling in the knee joint. Corticosteroids are injected directly into the knee joint in conjunction with anesthetic medication, where they act to decrease inflammation and alleviate pain.
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a substance naturally found in joint fluid that helps lubricate and cushion the joint. Also known as Visco supplementation, involves injecting a gel-like substance into the knee joint to improve lubrication and reduce friction.
PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood and contains a high concentration of platelets, which are rich in growth factors that promote healing. Blood is drawn from the patient and processed to concentrate the platelets. The PRP is then injected into the knee joint to stimulate tissue repair and reduce inflammation.
